palimpsest is a library and accompanying utility to embed files within a C program. It also has the ability to overlay virtual "files" over the system filesystem.
After building and installing palimpsest, you can
build a bundle with the palimpsest
utility and read the bundle from your
program after including palimpsest.h
. The man pages have examples and
comprehensive documentation. palimpsest -h
will also provide a short help
text for the utility.
