Current Status

Klaus Halfmann
I decided to recreate the parts of the original hfsutils and keep theire names but remame "hfs" to "hfsp" reso. "h" to "hp" wherever needed. I started working on libhfsp. Im used to OO-Programming, so I recreated the code with objects in mind. See documenation for libhfsp.

The libhfsp part works for (most) readonly purposes. Im currently working on user-useable tools like hpmount hpcd and hpls.

Ask me (Klaus Hafmann <klaus.halfmann@t-online.de> where you might help.

To Do:

• create a working libhfsp (readonly)
• check why hppwd didnt make it into the rpm
• glibc source
• create a working libhfsp (writing)
• Create a hpfscheck to find at least maximum node Id
• Recreate commandline tools
• (Re-)create kernel module
• optimize libhfsp (caching, etc)
  • optimize key search for fixed length keys (extends tree...)
  • Make the address of the FSF correctly everywhere
• create mkfs / chkfs
• Recreate UI/X-Tools
