There is nothing currently like FUSE for MacOSX. It would be a good
hacker project.. :)

Plumber, please have another look at my question...
I'm looking for a way to create a filesystem that is actually a
view onto another filesystem, preferably using some technology like
FUSE.
As far as I can tell, this has nothing to do with any of the
following:
- writing Spotlight plugins
- filesystem performance tuning
- potted histories of specific filesystems
- explanations of what a heirarchical filesystem is
- examples of Darwin supporting HFS and/or UFS
Best wishes,
Hamish

In computing, the Berkeley Fast File System (or FFS) is a file
system used mostly
by Unix operating systems. It is an optimization to the original
filesystem used by
Unix System V (called just 'FS') and has evolved into UFS which is
used by
most Unix derivatives today.
early all BSD unix derivatives including FreeBSD, NetBSD,
OpenBSD, NeXTStep, and Solaris use a variant of UFS. In
Mac OS X it is available as an alternative to HFS. In
Linux, partial UFS support is available and the native Linux ext2
filesystem is derived from UFS.
hierarchical file system
A file organization method that stores data in a top-to-bottom
organization structure.
All access to the data starts at the top and proceeds downward
throughout the
levels of the hierarchy. Most all operating systems use hierarchical
file systems to store data and programs. For example, in Windows,
the top
of the hierarchy is the drive letter, such as C: or D:,
followed by folders and subfolders.
