Attributes

The following is a list of filesystem properties which may be queried as methods through the parent Sys::Filesystem object.

The property 'label' is also set, but cannot be queried by Sys::Filesystem yet.

mount_point

The mount point (usually either '/' or '/Volumes/...').

device

The mounted device

format

Describes the type of the filesystem. So far I encountered the following types:

hfs

The standard Mac OS X HFS(+) filesystem. Disk images (.dmg) and Mac Software DVDs normally also use the HFS(+) format.

msdos

DOS image files (e.g. floppy disk images)

cd9660

CD-ROM image files or real CD-ROMs

cddafs

Audio CDs

udf

UDF filesystem (e.g. DVDs)

(empty)

For mounted FTP servers, disktool returns an empty filesystem type (ie, '').
