This code will probably delete all -your files, install Windows[tm] on your computer, set fire to your -house, and guarantee you an IRS audit every year for the rest of -your life. +GnomeVFS is a filesystem abstraction library allowing applications +plugable transparent access to a variety of "real" filesystems, from +WebDAV to digital cameras, to the local filesystem. It also contains a +number of other convenient file utilities such as a comphrehensive MIME +database / Application registry, and a copy engine. Use of GnomeVFS +ensures that an application or component will be usable by Nautilus or +other GnomeVFS applications for handling the display of data from +various URIs, as well. + +This is the GnomeVFS for the GNOME 2 architecture.
