sure, but normalizing filesystems can be very time-consuming and maybe
resources consuming too. there are lots of specificites for each of them,
and also, I guess, for each implementation (my Minix implementation has a
lot of restriction -- only one file descriptor for instance -- that may not
be compatible with other filesystems...

I guess the simplest way would be to stick to file level (that's what this
is about after all). Again, open, seek, read, write, close are the only
primitive, and standard, actions I can think about when dealing with files.
Haven't you implemented this ?

That would be great, but you'll need a Linux box or similar. I couldn't find
a Minix driver for Windows.

I hope to find time to write some tutorials too. When I developed libs &
samples, I used a dataset to perform tests + generic sample (demo). These
are great materials for both tests and tutorials

Cheers,
Seb
