VMWARE PLAYER VIX API FOR MAC FULL
In Windows and Mac OS X guest operating systems, fits the screen display resolution of the guest to the screen resolution of the vSphere Web Client, if running in full screen mode. On Linux guest operating systems that run Xorg 1.8 and later, this functionality is available as a standard feature.
This program, which runs in the background, is called vmtoolsd.exe in Windows guest operating systems, vmware-tools-daemon in Mac OS X guest operating systems, and vmtoolsd in Linux, FreeBSD, and Solaris guest operating systems. The service passes information between host and guest operating systems. The VMware Tools service starts when the guest operating system starts.
