Support for mounting on Mac with OSXFUSE (FUSE for macOS)

Post by lightbord »

Hello. I was wondering if there is any chance in the future of adding support for using OSXFUSE https://osxfuse.github.io/ to mount images similar to how FUSE is used on Linux. I have used OSXFUSE on my machine (running Mojave) for other things such as SSHFS, and it works pretty well. Would be awesome to see this feature come to Mac as I (and I'm sure others) would find this very useful as a Mac guy who needs to frequently do this kind of stuff.

I don't have much time for wimlib anymore, and I don't use Mac at all. So the chance that I'd do this is pretty small. It could be contributed by someone else though.

You can, of course, still use wimextract and wimupdate to handle WIM images on Mac; it's just mounting that doesn't work.
