Hi, First of all, thanks for the great tool! Second, have you thought about adding an option to show the magic avfs directories ending with `#` symbol next to each file with supported extension? It will make it possible to use avfs with graphical file managers and other systems which expect all available directories to be visible with readdir/ls call (like overlayfs). I made such patch for myself and it seems to work fine for the case of overlayfs mounted on top of avfs - all changes made inside readonly archives are stored in overlayfs "upper" dir, so for other apps it looks like all archives are mounted read-write! However, my code is rather dirty (list of supported extensions is hardcoded and there is no option to switch this off), that's why I'd like to know maintainers' opinion before creating a pull request (or how is it done on sourceforge): are you interested in adding such functionality to the mainline avfs? Thanks, Aleksei. |
