OK that will do, that is SheepShaver version 2.5, creation date 1 March 2021, or possibly 2 March when you are in China.
(You will find version number and creation date when you select the application icon and hit command-I (which which show the Finder Info panel for the selected file).
For the test, download this SheepShaver build: https://www.emaculation.com/sheepshaver ... 210416.zip
and replace the older application with this newer one. I will explain the test later.

We need to find the encoding for Simplified Chinese. Is that correct?

Apologies if this is useless or was posted earlier, but I wonder if this could help point in the right direction? I haven't tried it:
https://support.apple.com/kb/DL355?locale=en_US
The page says it's designed for OS X 10.1 or 10.2, and it presumably won't run on an Intel Mac, but possibly an experiment in QEMU could help sort things out?

Re: How to display Chinese correctly on UNIX disk when Chinese MacOSX 10.9 runs sheepshaver Chinese version macos9.0?
I understand this is for making MacOS file names display correctly in OSX/macOS. But here we want to keep the classic MacOS file names unchanged as they will be used in classic MacOS in SheepShaver, but also have them displayed correctly in "Unix" when they are in the shared folder, when the guest MacOS and the host OSX are used with the same language (in this case Chinese). Without the new "name_encoding" feature, the file names are displayed correctly in both the guest MacOS and the host OSX, but appear garbled in "Unix".

The version of 0416 you sent is in my macos10 . 9 on the image refresh is not normal, can not be displayed correctly, you must drag the mouse to block before you can see the picture. It can't be used normally, but I checked it through blind operation. The Chinese file name is not displayed, but the empty file name is displayed.Ronald P.

Re: How to display Chinese correctly on UNIX disk when Chinese MacOSX 10.9 runs sheepshaver Chinese version macos9.0?
Confusion, confusion.
Please do not mix different things, issues, and solutions. Now I am almost lost again.
1. The suggestion by emendelson is not a solution for your issue, as I explained above.
2. Using the new SheepShaver build does not yet solve your issue in itself, because installing it was just the first step. The new build is needed to make the changes that could possibly solve the issue. I wrote above "I will explain the test later".
But, I understand that the new SheepShaver build does not run correctly in your OSX 10.9. That is possible, as It has not been tested on OSX 10.9. I do not have OSX 10.9 and I suppose neither has the developer kanjitalk755. Nevertheless, if the 1 March 2021 build runs on your machine, I can see no reason why the 16 April 2021 would not run correctly. Nothing changed between March 1 and April 16 that could explain the issue you describe. If we cannot make this build run on your machine, there is no solution for the garbled text issue in "Unix".
Request to other users: If you can boot your machine in OSX 10.9 (Mavericks), can you try if this 16 April 2021 build will run there?

Please wait!
This may be a problem with not understanding each other because of the language barrier, but I did not ask you to download and try again. This thread will become unreadable and incomprehensible like this. Please wait till I give further instructions.
The request to other users still stands: If you can boot your machine in OSX 10.9 (Mavericks), can you try if this 16 April 2021 build will run there?

Re: How to display Chinese correctly on UNIX disk when Chinese MacOSX 10.9 runs sheepshaver Chinese version macos9.0?
Thanks. Good to know there is not a mysterious bug that was entered in the source since March 1 this year and that only affects older OSX hosts.
In the meantime, kanjitalk755 made a change in the source that makes Japanese, Chinese Simplified, and Chinese Traditional fixed settings in a new "name_encoding" prefs item.
New test builds coming.

In a private conversation we made sure that my April 21 SheepShaver build runs correctly in your OSX setup.
https://www.emaculation.com/sheepshaver ... 210421.zip
Now do this:
- Shut down SheepShaver
- Open ~/.sheepshaver_prefs in a text editor as you did before:
- Launch Terminal (in /Application/Utilities/)
- type at the prompt followed by a return
(The file will open in your default text editor.)
- Add the following line at the bottom:
- Close and Save
When you run SheepShaver again, do the files in "Unix" show their correct names?

Re: How to display Chinese correctly on UNIX disk when Chinese MacOSX 10.9 runs sheepshaver Chinese version macos9.0?
You cannot. The "name_encoding" feature is new in the 16 April and 21 April test builds.
Good! So this new feature works as intended.yes. It can display Chinese correctly.
I do not understand what you mean with "the mouse feel off the frame". Maybe you mean the mouse behaviour inside the SheepShaver window.But the mouse feel off the frame, not smooth.
You can try the hardware cursor, the hardware cursor will feel smoother.
To enable the hardware cursor you need to add this line to the prefs file:
Code: Select all
hardcursor true
