GIO branch

GIO is a virtual filesystem that has replaced gnome-vfs in GNOME.
It is included with GLib, so programs can use it without depending
on the whole GNOME stack.

To experiment with GIO, I've create a new branch here:

  http://repo.or.cz/w/rox-filer.git?a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/gio

If you've already checked ROX-Filer out, you can do:

$ git fetch
$ git checkout -b gio origin/gio
$ ./AppRun --compile

It's only for the super-curious at present. It's buggy and most
things don't work. But, you can do e.g.

$ rox -n trash://

to browse your virtual trash directory, or

$ gvfs-mount ssh://user@host
$ rox ssh://user@host

You should be able to use it to look inside archives too, but I
can't figure out the syntax at the moment :-/

API docs are here: http://library.gnome.org/devel/gio/2.16/
