The Python-LLFUSE Module
========================


.. start-intro

**Warning - no longer maintained**

Python-LLFUSE is no longer actively maintained. Unless you are stuck
with Python 2.x or libfuse 2.x, we recommended to use the pyfuse3_
module instead.

Python-LLFUSE is a set of Python bindings for the low level FUSE_
API. It requires at least FUSE 2.8.0 and supports both Python 2.x and
3.x. Like FUSE itself, Python-LLFUSE is developed for Linux systems,
but it should be compatible with OS-X, FreeBSD and NetBSD as well.

Python-LLFUSE releases can be downloaded from PyPi_. The documentation
can be `read online`__ and is also included in the ``doc/html``
directory of the Python-LLFUSE tarball.
