It relies heavily on [[libstore]]. # Examples You can make a file's content available as some block device (where `foo` is the name of the file to map): settrans -ca node /hurd/storeio -T file foo You can even `ungzip` files on the fly (`bunzip2` is available as well): settrans -ca node /hurd/storeio -T gunzip foo.gz You can use the *typed store*, to create filter chains (of course this example is kind of useless since you could use the `gunzip` store directly): settrans -ca node /hurd/storeio -T typed gunzip:file:foo.gz
