SkyOS contributor Peter Speybrouck released his first version of a SkyFS/BFS reader for Windows. This application allows you to view the file structure and copy files from both SkyFS and BFS partitions. Additionally, it can read the file attributes supported by these filesystems. The application does not yet work on Windows Vista.

I wonder if Peter would consider allowing Haiku coders to participate in the development of this tool, perhaps helping move it forward a bit quicker?
In case you didn't know - Peter based much of his code on what he's learned by reviewing Haiku's OBFS code - he hangs out in #haiku often as well (I won't mention nickname he uses here).
I think I had a short discussion with him about this previously, and he seemed interested in keeping the source closed until it was more functional, possibly opening it up in the future.

Awesome! Tools like these are such a great enhancement for dual booters...
Obviously, this app could be a really useful tool for Haiku as well as SkyOS.
