Dokan Libary

Copyright(c) Hiroki Asakawa http://dokan-dev.net/en



What is Dokan Library
=====================

When you want to create a new file system on Windows, for example to
improve FAT or NTFS, you need to develope a file system
driver. Developing a device driver that works in kernel mode on
windows is extremley difficult.By using Dokan library, you can create
your own file systems very easily without writing device driver. Dokan
Library is similar to FUSE(Linux user mode file system) but works on
Windows.


Licensing
=========

Dokan library contains LGPL, MIT licensed programs.

- user-mode library (dokan.dll) LGPL
- driver (dokan.sys) LGPL
- control program (dokanctl.exe) MIT
- mount service (mouter.exe) MIT
