README
This is currently unmaintained, as I have better things to do with my life.
Welcome to squashrs-tools!
This is the repository of squashrs-tools, a heavily WIP Rust port of squashfs-tools.
The goals of this port are:
- Memory safety
- Increased performance
- Reduced complexity
- Reusability as a library
- OS portability
The non-goals are:
-
Complete rewrite.
- This was transpiled from squashfs-tools with
c2rustand as such, keeps the original license. - If you need a permissively licensed squashfs library, consider backhand.
- This was transpiled from squashfs-tools with
Very little of the C-style code has been converted to safe, idiomatic Rust. To see what needs working on, please read the Codeberg issue list.
