 file before the filesystem. See libtarmap.so for more details.
 
-TBD
-
-This dynamic library, libtarmap.so, is intended to be used as a
-"preload" library for programs for which pathnames are to be mapped to
-a different common prefix. The effect is somewhat similar to +chroot+
-in that absolute pathnames, which normally are from the root of the
-file system, get mapped to be relative to the choosen prefix point.
-
-+libtarmap.so+ is "configured" by setting environment variable
-+PATHMAPNOT+ to be the path prefixes, given as a colon separated list,
-that +libtarmap.so+ should be concerned with. The first of them is
-then used as the prefix to add to the program's pathnames (when
-opening files) except to those pathnames that start with any of the
-prefixes in the list, including the first.
-
-For example, if the prefix +/elsewhere+ should be added to all
-pathnames for a program +prgrm+ then the command line might be:
-
-----
-PATHMAPNOT=/elsewhere LD_PRELOAD=libtarmap.so prgrm

-
-However, if +prgrm+ is a dynamically linked executable, then all
