Thanks for the advice! I think, I will have a look especially at
fuse4x.

Setting up a filesystem isn't an easy job. However, I just want to get
familiar with Objective-C and need to encrypt some files. Performance
is not in my focus.

It would be just nice, to have a starting point to begin working with
MacFUSE.

Regards,
Pat
