An interface for userspace programs to export a filesystem to the Linux kernel.

Running things under FUSE is sub-optimal. It’s better to run under the kernel directly. However, userland stuff is the only way to achieve certain effects, like everyday user control or to work around licensing issues.

Fuse is not secure! – Noted on https://github.com/libfuse/libfuse. See issue #15

acronym: Filesystem in Userspace

A nice light terminal emulator.

rxvt is a colour vt102 terminal emulator intended as an xterm replacement for users who do not require features such as Tektronix 4014 emulation and toolkit-style configurability. As a result, rxvt uses much less swap space.
