Re: [B2-devel] Test clipboard SheepShaver in Mac OS X

[Alexei S. <ale...@gm...>]

Can you file issues on our GitHub issue tracker about these problems?

https://github.com/cebix/macemu/issues

Please file one issue per specific problem and include as much info as you
can (e.g. which specific apps and OS versions you tested with), so that a
developer can easily reproduce the problem.

Thanks!
