-Fuse version 0.03
-=================
-
-This is a test release. It seems to work quite well. In fact, I can't
-find any problems with it whatsoever. If you do, I want to know.
-
-
-INSTALLATION
-
-To install this module type the standard commands as root:
-
- perl Makefile.PL
- make
- make test
- make install
-
-
-DEPENDENCIES
-
-This module requires the FUSE userspace library and the FUSE kernel module.
-
-
-COPYRIGHT AND LICENCE
-
-This is contributed to the FUSE project by Mark Glines <mark@glines.org>,
-and is therefore subject to the same license and copyright as FUSE itself.
-Please see the AUTHORS and COPYING files from the FUSE distribution for
-more information.
-
-
-EXAMPLES
-
-There are a few example scripts. You can find them in the examples/
-subdirectory. These are:
-
-* example.pl, a simple "Hello world" type of script
-
-* loopback.pl, a filesystem loopback-device. like fusexmp from
- the main FUSE dist, it simply recurses file operations
- into the real filesystem. Unlike fusexmp, it only
- re-shares files under the /tmp/test directory.
-
-* rmount.pl, an NFS-workalike which tunnels through SSH. It requires
- an account on some ssh server (obviously), with public-key
- authentication enabled. (if you have to type in a password,
- you don't have this. man ssh_keygen.). Copy rmount_remote.pl
- to your home directory on the remote machine, and create a
- subdir somewhere, and then run it like:
- ./rmount.pl host /remote/dir /local/dir
-
-* rmount_remote.pl, a ripoff of loopback.pl meant to be used as a backend
- for rmount.pl.
-
-
-BUGS
-
-I've begun to build a formal testing framework. Currently it can mount
-and unmount loopback.pl, and all of the base-level functions have test
-scripts. These need to be fleshed out as problems are noticed.
-
-The current test framework seems to work well, but the underlying mount/
-unmount infrastructure is a crock. I am not pleased with that code.
-
-While most things work, I do still have a TODO list:
-* "du -sb" reports a couple orders of magnitude too large a size.
-* need to sort out cleaner mount semantics for the test framework
-* figure out how to un-linuxcentrify the statfs tests
-* test everything on other architectures and OS's
