Description:
Project description:
I am planning to call the project vfs (Virtual File System)

This project is based on something i wrote before in Delphi. I was still using 
windows at that time. 100% of that code is mine. This ancester was a tool to 
create a database of files with their locations. You could change the location 
of the files etc. If you read the spec i mention below you will probebly 
understand what it was supposed to do. A problem whith this code is that it is 
ducumentend in MS word and that it needs windows to run on.

The vfs Project:
There is no code available yet but i intend to use mysql or PostgreSQL if 
needed. The first technical studies will probebly be done in perl since i am 
getting attached to that. I may even end up with a full operational console 
version in perl.

The gui should be written in Cpp or something else that would make an efficient 
environment. (Haven\'t decided yet)

I do have an quite large specification of this project. Right now it has been 
translated largely so it will give you a pretty good idea what the project is 
about.

This spec is written in \"Open Office\" but if you don\'t have that i can 
export it to text or something else if you like.

I don\'t have a website for this project b

Other Software Required:
mysql or PostgreSQL
I\'m going to try mysql first since i am expecting to handle large amouts of 
data and it needs to be fast.

Other Comments:
Please give me a message so i can sent the spec (Currently 25k)
