It bind mounts a driver on -top of the file mountpoint to present the nominated file fragments as -a single, contiguous file. - -The fragment arguments include the filename of a source file, and -optionally start and end byte positions. All in all there five -variations: - - * __filename__ include all of the file. - - * __filename/__ include all of the file named with "/" in the pathname. This case requires a final "/", since the last "/" separates the filename from the position details. - - * __filename/from__ include the file from the given start position, to end. - - * __filename/-to__ include the file from beginning to the given end position (not included). - - * __filename/from-to__ include the file from the given start position, up to the given end position (not included). - -## EXAMPLES - -Insert file "y" into file "x" at position 1200: - - $ fusefile -ononempty x x/-1200 y x/1200 -The bind mount shadows the original file "x", and presents the -composite instead. - -Make file y be a swap of the beginning and end of file "x", at -position 2442: - - $ fusefile y x/2442 x/-2442 - -## NOTES - -Note that **fusefile** opens the nominated source file(s) before bind -mounting. With the fuse option __-ononempty__ it will bind over an -non-empty file, which may be useful. The source file descriptors -remain open, but the source fragments are not recomputed. If a source -file changes or reduces in size, anything may happen. - -If the mountpoint file doesn't exist, then **fusefile** creates it, -and removes it when unmounted. - -## AUTHOR - -Ralph Rönnquist -- 2.39.2
