Re: [hatari-devel] Screenshots are saved in Hatari installation directory

[Anders Eriksson <ae@xxxxxx>]

Hi!

I've tested this new macOS fix and it appears to work correctly, thanks! 
It was a bit messy before screenshots, landed everywhere because I 
sometime start Hatari with scripts, sometime not. More than often I just 
took the macOS window-screenshot instead :)

Screen dump saved to: /Users/ae/Desktop/grab0001.png


And sorry I wasn't quick enough to test the release candidate build before 
it was released, but it appears to work fine on my machines which are Mac 
Pro 5.1 with High Sierra and Macbook Pro 15" non-retina with Sierra.

I could try to wake up the old 32-bit 2006 Macbook if really needed too.
