The Linux Transparent Encryption project aims for integrating transparent read/write access to encrypted data into the linux kernel. This enables any application to use encrypted data without modifying the application itself.

LUFS is a hybrid userspace filesystem framework supporting many "exotic" filesystems (localfs, sshfs, ftpfs, gnutellafs, locasefs, gvfs, cardfs, cefs, etc. ).

A challenging project that attempts to get a Linux distro to run under Google's NaCl. NaCl untime environment is very different from traditional posix systems. There is several hurdles to overcome in order to get a standard linux distribution to run under NaCl. There is a library called nacl_io in the Google NaCl sdk. It mimics the function of a posix files and sockets on top of ppapi. Similarly in naclports there is a crude nacl-spawn library which mimics processes by creating multiple nacl modules with javascript acting as a sort of "kernel". Currently the main holes that prevent a conventional distro from being ported is that there is no support for pipes, most signals, and also symbolic links and lastly traditional forks are not currently possible in an efficent way.The current implementation gets around forking and has limited vfork capability. Please join this project to help implement fixes for these issues so we can get your favorite distro to run at nearly native speed!

LisTX is a PHP-based web kit for listing directories and files of a specific path on a web server. It just looks like Directory Indexing page of apache. If you have a PHP virtual host but you can't configure apache, you may need it.

LoggedFS is a fuse-filesystem which can log every operations in the filesystem (open, read, write, chmod, chown, remove, etc...). The configuration file allows to logs operations only for certains files with a regexp. now on github : https://github.com/rflament/loggedfs

Lomega is similar in functionality to Iomega'sŽ IomegaWare Tools.Ž It allows the user to mount and umount disks easily and also features the ability to change the protection status of a disk. Lomega supports compressed file backup's.

MDFS is a simple Distributed File System for Linux and Windows. It's not a kernel module, just an app running in the background. You can use it to access (view, download, upload) files on a remote computer, for automatically backup your files, etc...

Fuse-based cache file-system with support for disconnected mode, journal apply, refresh mode, multi-thread transfer and local directory structure cache.

MD5 Rescue permite reparar archivos que se han corrompido si se dispone de como mínimo dos archivos corrompidos (corrompidos en diferentes partes) y se conoce el md5 del archivo correcto.

MEDDAC is the seeding point for designing a new approach to Operating System design itself. It is an Open Source project with roots in mainframe design and development the author began in 1979. Monitor Editor Disassembler Decompiler Assembler Compiler

Modest is an LKM piece of code that allows users, running a user-space control application which interacts with kmodest char driver using ioctl() syscalls, to redirect I/O write() or writev() system calls to a second file descriptor at runtime.

The Mobile Object Oriented File System allows free space on every network computer to be used as a single disk space.

This library supports reading and writing Macintosh data and resource forks in AppleSingle, AppleDouble, Windows Appleshare Server, Helios, Xinet, MacLan and UShare formats.

Tool to view disk structure of a virtual machine image (loopback device file) and export it's partition to new loopback device file.

Magic(!) Mounter tries to mimic the behaviour of MacOS with regards to automatic monitoring and mounting of the volumes in your system (CDs, ZIP disks, floppies, HDs) using user-friendly mount points. It can also eject devices and let users control them.

libfusi is a management interface library for managing FUSE network filesystem mounts. gfuse-manager is a Gtk+ GUI tool using this interface.

A PhP / JavaScript based system to store, edit and make manuals in directorys. With the a powerful JavaScript rich text editor the mauals can be written and edited. The PhP system can write new manuals to disk, make directories and rename them.

MapFS is a kernel module for Linux that implements a filesystem for composing portions of additional filesystems (read/only or read/write) into a single writable virtual filesystem.

The “Media Crawler” is an extensible Eclipse RCP based desktop application which will crawl a given file system, extract metadata from files, map metadata to internal schemas and store the metadata in a databse. This project is ANDS-funded.

MediaFS is FUSE-based filesystem for remote access to local removable ressources/devices (cdrom,usb,...) using X11-authentication and HAL/DBus-support. It's main application fields are thin-clients / terminalservers

MediaSort is a tool to automatically rename your media files (pictures, mp3, ...) with their metadata attributes. You can sort your pictures by date, camera ... or other EXIF attributes. MP3s by author, album .. or other ID3 tags. Java GUI based on Ant.

MetFS is a filesystem in userspace that is FUSE based, encrypted, dynamic sized (increase when new data added, decrease when data removed), single file when it's unmounted and very fast. MetFS 's proved to be running on Linux and FreeBSD.

MetaFS allows you to access information about your files (such as MP3 tags or JPEG's EXIF tags) easily and consistently using extended attributes. It also allows you to easily perform fast searches using this information.

Metamon is a 3D file system browser, yet it is easy to understand and use. Developpers can use Metamon to find new ways of displaying files in a three dimensional space, while not having to bother with the usual features of a file browser, already made.

Minirighi is a multi-threading open-source operating system written for didactic purpose. It has been written from scratch and it is compatible with POSIX.
