42 * @ingroup grp_rt
43 *
44 * The virtual filesystem APIs are intended to make it possible to work on
45 * container files, file system sub-trees, file system overlays and other custom
46 * filesystem configurations. It also makes it possible to create filters, like
47 * automatically gunzipping a tar.gz file before feeding it to the RTTar API for
48 * unpacking - or wise versa.
49 *
50 * The virtual filesystem APIs are intended to mirror the RTDir, RTFile, RTPath
51 * and RTFs APIs pretty closely so that rewriting a piece of code to work with
52 * it should be easy. However there are some differences to the way the APIs
53 * works and the user should heed the documentation. The differences are
54 * usually motivated by simplification and in some case to make the VFS more
55 * flexible.

516 *
517 * VFS chains is for doing pipe like things with VFS objects from the command
518 * line. Imagine you want to cat the readme.gz of an ISO you could do
519 * something like:
520 * RTCat :iprtvfs:vfs(isofs,./mycd.iso)|ios(open,readme.gz)|ios(gunzip)
521 * or
522 * RTCat :iprtvfs:ios(isofs,./mycd.iso,/readme.gz)|ios(gunzip)
523 *
524 * The "isofs", "open" and "gunzip" bits in the above examples are chain
525 * element providers registered with IPRT. See RTVFSCHAINELEMENTREG for how
526 * these works.
