Could you point me to the interface of this OS module ? I was oblivious of its existence.

or https://github.com/mirage/mirage-platform/tree/master/unix

It is clearly not finished and won't get much work on it before this summer (it will develop further together with assemblage). There are things that need careful review and further development (e.g. path and pattern handling). If you wish so I'm willing to make a silent release with the current state, but don't blame me if your code breaks on the next release even on trivialities (hints at breaking changes can already be found in the bt).

Best,

Daniel
