This is a FUSE (http://fuse.sf.net/) server that was designed to communicate
with a MythTV backend server. It creates an overlay filesystem that
encodes TV Program metadata (title, episode, description) into a filename
so that systems that do not natively talk to MythTV can still get information
about a given show. The initial design goal is to make it compatible
with the in-filename metadata extraction capabilities that will (hopefully)
be in future versions of Galleon (http://galleon.sf.net/).

Edit,: though just thinking about it, the Pretty directory does the same thing.
