VMware fusion headless launcher

A little handy utility to launch VMware fusion images in a headless mode. It does by listing all the existing .vmx images in the default directory and be able to choose which image to launch. Currently the existing vmrun tool doesn't list the path/directory where your images are stored, rather you have to provide the full path to launch the images in a headless mode. It saves me time from giving the full path to the .vmx image everytime I want to launch a vm in a headless mode.

• This project is still in progress.
• Tested only on macos
• Tested with VMware Fusion 12.1.0 installed, and using the default $HOME/Virtual Machines directory for storing the .vmx images
