directory_map(5)

NAME
directory_map - Executor database for mapping i-numbers to names

DESCRIPTION
Macintosh filesystems give the programmer the ability to look up directories by number rather than by name. Executor needs to provide the same functionality to Macintosh applications. So when representing Macintosh on UNIX filesystems, it's necessary to keep a map from UNIX filesystem and i-number to pathname.

FORMAT
The format of the map is not publicly documented.

FILES
/var/opt/executor/directory_map-le.db - the directory map that is shared by all executor users on little-endian machines (e.g. 80x86 compatibles). /var/opt/executor/directory_map.db - the directory map that is shared by all executor users on big-endian machines (e.g. NeXTstations).
