*
* PhysicsFS; a portable, flexible file i/o abstraction.
*
* This API gives you access to a system file system in ways superior to the
* stdio or system i/o calls. The brief benefits:
*
* - It's portable.
* - It's safe. No file access is permitted outside the specified dirs.
* - It's flexible. Archives (.ZIP files) can be used transparently as
* directory structures.
*
* This system is largely inspired by Quake 3's PK3 files and the related
* fs_* cvars. If you've ever tinkered with these, then this API will be
* familiar to you.
*
* With PhysicsFS, you have a single writing directory and multiple
* directories (the "search path") for reading. You can think of this as a
* filesystem within a filesystem. If (on Windows) you were to set the
* writing directory to "C:\MyGame\MyWritingDirectory", then no PHYSFS calls
* could touch anything above this directory, including the "C:\MyGame" and
* "C:\" directories. This prevents an application's internal scripting
* language from piddling over c:\\config.sys, for example. If you'd rather
* give PHYSFS full access to the system's REAL file system, set the writing
* dir to "C:\", but that's generally A Bad Thing for several reasons.
*
* Drive letters are hidden in PhysicsFS once you set up your initial paths.
* The search path creates a single, hierarchical directory structure.
* Not only does this lend itself well to general abstraction with archives,
* it also gives better support to operating systems like MacOS and Unix.
* Generally speaking, you shouldn't ever hardcode a drive letter; not only
* does this hurt portability to non-Microsoft OSes, but it limits your win32
* users to a single drive, too. Use the PhysicsFS abstraction functions and
* allow user-defined configuration options, too. When opening a file, you
* specify it like it was on a Unix filesystem: if you want to write to
* "C:\MyGame\MyConfigFiles\game.cfg", then you might set the write dir to
* "C:\MyGame" and then open "MyConfigFiles/game.cfg". This gives an
* abstraction across all platforms. Specifying a file in this way is termed
* "platform-independent notation" in this documentation. Specifying a
* a filename in a form such as "C:\mydir\myfile" or
* "MacOS hard drive:My Directory:My File" is termed "platform-dependent
* notation". The only time you use platform-dependent notation is when
* setting up your write directory and search path; after that, all file
* access into those directories are done with platform-independent notation.
*
* All files opened for writing are opened in relation to the write directory,
* which is the root of the writable filesystem. When opening a file for
* reading, PhysicsFS goes through the search path. This is NOT the
* same thing as the PATH environment variable. An application using
* PhysicsFS specifies directories to be searched which may be actual
* directories, or archive files that contain files and subdirectories of
* their own. See the end of these docs for currently supported archive
* formats.
*
* Once the search path is defined, you may open files for reading. If you've
* got the following search path defined (to use a win32 example again):
*
* - C:\\mygame
* - C:\\mygame\\myuserfiles
* - D:\\mygamescdromdatafiles
* - C:\\mygame\\installeddatafiles.zip
*
* Then a call to PHYSFS_openRead("textfiles/myfile.txt") (note the directory
* separator, lack of drive letter, and lack of dir separator at the start of
* the string; this is platform-independent notation) will check for
* C:\\mygame\\textfiles\\myfile.txt, then
* C:\\mygame\\myuserfiles\\textfiles\\myfile.txt, then
* D:\\mygamescdromdatafiles\\textfiles\\myfile.txt, then, finally, for
* textfiles\\myfile.txt inside of C:\\mygame\\installeddatafiles.zip.
* Remember that most archive types and platform filesystems store their
* filenames in a case-sensitive manner, so you should be careful to specify
* it correctly.
*
* Files opened through PhysicsFS may NOT contain "." or ".." or ":" as dir
* elements. Not only are these meaningless on MacOS Classic and/or Unix,
* they are a security hole. Also, symbolic links (which can be found in
* some archive types and directly in the filesystem on Unix platforms) are
* NOT followed until you call PHYSFS_permitSymbolicLinks(). That's left to
* your own discretion, as following a symlink can allow for access outside
* the write dir and search paths. For portability, there is no mechanism for
* creating new symlinks in PhysicsFS.
*
* The write dir is not included in the search path unless you specifically
* add it. While you CAN change the write dir as many times as you like,
* you should probably set it once and stick to it. Remember that your
* program will not have permission to write in every directory on Unix and
* NT systems.
*
* All files are opened in binary mode; there is no endline conversion for
* textfiles. Other than that, PhysicsFS has some convenience functions for
* platform-independence. There is a function to tell you the current
* platform's dir separator ("\\" on windows, "/" on Unix, ":" on MacOS),
* which is needed only to set up your search/write paths. There is a
* function to tell you what CD-ROM drives contain accessible discs, and a
* function to recommend a good search path, etc.
*
* A recommended order for the search path is the write dir, then the base dir,
* then the cdrom dir, then any archives discovered. Quake 3 does something
* like this, but moves the archives to the start of the search path. Build
* Engine games, like Duke Nukem 3D and Blood, place the archives last, and
* use the base dir for both searching and writing. There is a helper
* function (PHYSFS_setSaneConfig()) that puts together a basic configuration
* for you, based on a few parameters. Also see the comments on
* PHYSFS_getBaseDir(), and PHYSFS_getPrefDir() for info on what those
* are and how they can help you determine an optimal search path.
*
* PhysicsFS 2.0 adds the concept of "mounting" archives to arbitrary points
* in the search path. If a zipfile contains "maps/level.map" and you mount
* that archive at "mods/mymod", then you would have to open
* "mods/mymod/maps/level.map" to access the file, even though "mods/mymod"
* isn't actually specified in the .zip file. Unlike the Unix mentality of
* mounting a filesystem, "mods/mymod" doesn't actually have to exist when
* mounting the zipfile. It's a "virtual" directory. The mounting mechanism
* allows the developer to seperate archives in the tree and avoid trampling
* over files when added new archives, such as including mod support in a
* game...keeping external content on a tight leash in this manner can be of
* utmost importance to some applications.
*
* PhysicsFS is mostly thread safe. The error messages returned by
* PHYSFS_getLastError() are unique by thread, and library-state-setting
* functions are mutex'd. For efficiency, individual file accesses are
* not locked, so you can not safely read/write/seek/close/etc the same
* file from two threads at the same time. Other race conditions are bugs
* that should be reported/patched.
*
* While you CAN use stdio/syscall file access in a program that has PHYSFS_*
* calls, doing so is not recommended, and you can not use system
* filehandles with PhysicsFS and vice versa.
*
* Note that archives need not be named as such: if you have a ZIP file and
* rename it with a .PKG extension, the file will still be recognized as a
* ZIP archive by PhysicsFS; the file's contents are used to determine its
* type where possible.
*
* Currently supported archive types:
* - .ZIP (pkZip/WinZip/Info-ZIP compatible)
* - .7Z (7zip archives)
* - .ISO (ISO9660 files, CD-ROM images)
* - .GRP (Build Engine groupfile archives)
* - .PAK (Quake I/II archive format)
* - .HOG (Descent I/II HOG file archives)
* - .MVL (Descent II movielib archives)
* - .WAD (DOOM engine archives)
*
*
* String policy for PhysicsFS 2.0 and later:
*
* PhysicsFS 1.0 could only deal with null-terminated ASCII strings. All high
* ASCII chars resulted in undefined behaviour, and there was no Unicode
* support at all. PhysicsFS 2.0 supports Unicode without breaking binary
* compatibility with the 1.0 API by using UTF-8 encoding of all strings
* passed in and out of the library.
*
* All strings passed through PhysicsFS are in null-terminated UTF-8 format.
* This means that if all you care about is English (ASCII characters <= 127)
* then you just use regular C strings. If you care about Unicode (and you
* should!) then you need to figure out what your platform wants, needs, and
* offers. If you are on Windows before Win2000 and build with Unicode
* support, your TCHAR strings are two bytes per character (this is called
* "UCS-2 encoding"). Any modern Windows uses UTF-16, which is two bytes
* per character for most characters, but some characters are four. You
* should convert them to UTF-8 before handing them to PhysicsFS with
* PHYSFS_utf8FromUtf16(), which handles both UTF-16 and UCS-2. If you're
* using Unix or Mac OS X, your wchar_t strings are four bytes per character
* ("UCS-4 encoding"). Use PHYSFS_utf8FromUcs4(). Mac OS X can give you UTF-8
* directly from a CFString or NSString, and many Unixes generally give you C
* strings in UTF-8 format everywhere. If you have a single-byte high ASCII
* charset, like so-many European "codepages" you may be out of luck. We'll
* convert from "Latin1" to UTF-8 only, and never back to Latin1. If you're
* above ASCII 127, all bets are off: move to Unicode or use your platform's
* facilities. Passing a C string with high-ASCII data that isn't UTF-8
* encoded will NOT do what you expect!
*
* Naturally, there's also PHYSFS_utf8ToUcs2(), PHYSFS_utf8ToUtf16(), and
* PHYSFS_utf8ToUcs4() to get data back into a format you like. Behind the
* scenes, PhysicsFS will use Unicode where possible: the UTF-8 strings on
* Windows will be converted and used with the multibyte Windows APIs, for
* example.
*
* PhysicsFS offers basic encoding conversion support, but not a whole string
* library. Get your stuff into whatever format you can work with.
*
* All platforms supported by PhysicsFS 2.1 and later fully support Unicode.
* We have dropped platforms that don't (OS/2, Mac OS 9, Windows 95, etc), as
* even an OS that's over a decade old should be expected to handle this well.
* If you absolutely must support one of these platforms, you should use an
* older release of PhysicsFS.
*
* Many game-specific archivers are seriously unprepared for Unicode (the
* Descent HOG/MVL and Build Engine GRP archivers, for example, only offer a
* DOS 8.3 filename, for example). Nothing can be done for these, but they
* tend to be legacy formats for existing content that was all ASCII (and
* thus, valid UTF-8) anyhow. Other formats, like .ZIP, don't explicitly
* offer Unicode support, but unofficially expect filenames to be UTF-8
* encoded, and thus Just Work. Most everything does the right thing without
* bothering you, but it's good to be aware of these nuances in case they
* don't.

* Please see the file LICENSE.txt in the source's root directory for
* licensing and redistribution rights.
*
* Please see the file CREDITS.txt in the source's "docs" directory for

* A PHYSFS_Io is the interface that Archivers use to get archive data.
* Historically, this has mapped to file i/o to the physical filesystem, but
* as of PhysicsFS 2.1, applications can provide their own i/o implementations
* at runtime.
*
* This interface isn't necessarily a good universal fit for i/o. There are a
* few requirements of note:
*
* - They only do blocking i/o (at least, for now).
* - They need to be able to duplicate. If you have a file handle from
* fopen(), you need to be able to create a unique clone of it (so we
* have two handles to the same file that can both seek/read/etc without
* stepping on each other).
* - They need to know the size of their entire data set.
* - They need to be able to seek and rewind on demand.
*
* ...in short, you're probably not going to write an HTTP implementation.
