How to share files between host and emu system

Hello there,

I am not able to share files between the host system (mac) and the emulator.
How do I go by and map a folder on my host system to use that in the WB?

I got as far as seeing an empty window in the WB with the name of the folder as drive's name. However, whatever I put inside there doesn't show up and I can't put anything from the WB either.

any help is greatly appreciated.
thx!
mario

if i'm not mistaken, it is about the standard hidden files, if they do no come with an .info (icon file).
if you are on workbench, choose menu Window -> Show -> All Files,
after selecting/opening the "empty window" .

you can also use some directory tool like Diskmaster or DirectoryOpus4, which makes things easier.

Send a message via ICQ to Foul Send a message via MSN to Foul
in your Default.fs-uae config file, put :

hard_drive_1 = /path/to/your/directory/
hard_drive_1_label = Amiga

and in FS-UAE you'll got a Drive called Amiga pointing to your real MAC directory

Wink [solved] THANK YOU!

@ Foul
I had that configuration but without the label, apparently that made the difference to enable writing from WB. thanks!!

@emufan
and your tip now shows the folders. Double thanks!!
