Well, MacFuse is probably a completely new kind of thing that you have never encountered, which is the reason I asked what you think it is and why you are interested in using it. Have you read the FAQ? http://code.google.com/p/macfuse/wiki/FAQ Pay particular attention to Q 1.3 > I understand C, I doubt that ;-) You may think you understand it, but if you don't know what a precompiled binary is then you are missing some pretty basic stuff. > I'm a C programmer/student, but I have no concept of > what macFUSE looks like or how it works, therefore the > QUICKER_START_GUIDE is not all that helpful to me.

It's a system extension. And it doesn't do anything by itself. Here are some pointers to articles that will explain what MacFuse is and what it does. Read them in order: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File_system http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filesystem_in_Userspace and of course: http://code.google.com/p/macfuse/ rg -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacFUSE" group.
