# poorman-fs
FUSE File System implementation to PoorMan's Catalog Creator

[PoorMan](https://github.com/sinanislekdemir/poorman) is a DVD/CD/External Drive
indexing software. It can index your cold-storages so you can search what you need
in your cold storages without physically attaching them to your computer.

And PoorManFS is a FUSE implementation to PoorMan database.

You can mount the index as a "virtual" drive and use your favorite search tool
or browse the files easily without really attaching to the disks.

poormanfs works on the user-level. So no root access is needed;
