This creates a 7 Megabyte file, named 'my_image.dsk', in the current directory. 'count' is the number of 512 byte blocks.

The “K” folder contains disk images smaller than 1 megabyte, in powers of 2 starting at 128K (the smallest that works), and also multiples 1.25, 1.50, and 1.75 of those powers.

If you're using Mini vMac on a Macintosh, you might want to set the file type and creator of your new disk image file, using “SetFType”.

Another issue is that when you make multiple copies of these blank disk images, they will have the same creation date. This can make a difference if you use “Aliases” in System 7. The Macintosh system software can mistakenly decide that an already mounted disk is the disk it is looking for, particularly if it has the same creation date as the correct disk. If you might encounter this problem, before using one of the blank disk images you can erase it (with the “Erase Disk...” command in the Special menu of the Finder) to make sure it has a unique creation date.

Results: All UV-absorbing labeled test SCLs meet UV protection class 2. senofilcon A, senofilcon C, and narafilcon A meet the higher UV protection class 1 level. A statistically significant difference in UV transmittance (280 to 380 nm) has been found between SCLs with a positive BVP (+1.00 to +6.00 D) and SCLs with a negative BVP (-1.00 to -12.00 D), both without (P = .04) and with UV filters (P = .02).

It is a good idea to rename the disks inside the emulated machine, instead of leaving the default name “untitled”. Because if two different mounted disks have the same name, some programs can become confused. (The name of the disk which you see in the emulated machine is completely separate from the name of the disk image file).

Purpose: This study aimed to determine UV and visible light transmittance of different SCLs with and without UV protection filters.

The “M” folder contains disk images larger or equal to 1 megabyte, up to 224M. In general, it may not a good idea to use the largest sizes, for reasons described below.

Conclusions: With the ISO-conforming, diopter-independent measurement setup, the UV-absorbing test contact lenses that meet the current international standards, regardless of their BVP, were identified. Lenses with increased center thickness absorb more UV radiation. Further studies may use a modified measurement setup with a larger aperture than 10 mm. It would also be worthwhile to examine the UV absorption of the contact lens over the complete corneal area and limbal area because UV radiation may damage inner ocular tissues like the crystalline lens as well as limbal stem cells.

Significance: Ultraviolet (UV) and visible light transmittance of soft contact lenses (SCLs) was measured. A significant difference in UV transmittance has been found between SCLs with a positive and negative back vertex power (BVP). It can be shown that thicker SCLs absorb more UV radiation.

For Microsoft Windows, it is reported that the command line utility MAKEDSK will make zero-filled files. The same archive also contains MAKEIMG which generates formatted disk images. However, according to Disk First Aid and Norton Utilities, the disk images it generates are not quite in standard HFS format, so it may be safer just to use MAKEDSK, and let Mac OS in the emulated computer do the formatting.

You can also create your own blank disk images of any size. If you try to mount a file in Mini vMac which isn't a disk image (preferably all zeroes) the operating system of the emulated machine will ask if you want to initialize it. Choosing 'Initialize' will make a perfectly good disk image. You can create zeroed files in the terminal of Mac OS X, or Linux, with commands such as:

“blanks-1.1.zip” is a zip archive containing a folder of zipped empty Macintosh disk image files of various sizes and formats.

If you create a zeroed disk image file on a Macintosh, and wish to set the file type and creator with SetFType, you should first mount the zeroed file in Mini vMac to initialize it, unmount it, and then use SetFType. If you use SetFType before initializing the file, it won't know that the file is supposed to be a disk image.

If you're thinking of using large disk images, keep in mind that it is not a good idea to create one giant disk image for all your work. One reason is that the HFS file system is limited to a maximum of 65535 allocation blocks. So the minimum block size increases for larger disks, meaning more wasted space. (HFS Plus fixed this problem, but isn't supported on a Macintosh Plus.) Another reason it is a bad idea is that a Macintosh Plus doesn't have the memory protection of modern computers, so that a bug in any program can potentially corrupt mounted disks. It is safer to have separate disk images for separate purposes. This way Mini vMac gives the same benefits of memory protection, and more. No matter what program you run in the emulated machine, nothing can be harmed except the disk images that are mounted at the time. (Unless there was a major bug in Mini vMac, of course.)

The “dc42” folder contains disk images with the Disk Copy 4.2 header, and having file tags and checksums. (All the other disk images in Blanks are “raw”, containing just image data with no header or trailer.) Mini vMac can support file tags with the build system option “-sony-tag 1”, and can support checksums with the build system option “-sony-sum 1”.

First unzip “blanks-1.1.zip” to get the folder “blanks”. Then when you need a blank disk image, unzip one of the files in this folder. For example, unzip “800K.zip” to get “800K.dsk”, an 800K blank disk image, the size of a floppy disk normally used by a real Macintosh Plus.

The “mfs” folder contains disk images in the MFS format (Macintosh File System). All the other disk images in Blanks are in “HFS” format (Hierarchical File System), the standard for a Macintosh Plus. MFS preceded HFS. The original Macintosh 128K and 512K can only use MFS and not HFS. A Macintosh Plus can use either.

Methods: Twenty-one lens brands were investigated in the BVP range of -12.00 to +6.00 D. Three SCLs were measured per BVP 25 times. Three hundred thirty-nine SCLs with UV filter (stenfilcon A, somofilcon A, narafilcon A, senofilcon A, senofilcon C, etafilcon A, nesofilcon A) and 489 SCLs without UV filter (delefilcon A, lotrafilcon A, lotrafilcon B, comfilcon A, balafilcon A, samfilcon A, asmofilcon A, nelfilcon A, omafilcon A, hilafilcon B, ocufilcon D, hioxifilcon A, omafilcon B) have been examined. The measurement setup was created according to ISO 18369-3.

The top level of the blanks folder contains 2 other disk images in the sizes of standard Macintosh floppy disks: 400K and 1440K. A real Macintosh Plus floppy drive could use 400K disks, but not 1440K, which came later. But Mini vMac doesn't emulate the real floppy drive, replacing the disk driver in ROM, and so can use any size disk image, not just 400K and 800K.
