I need something that is similar to zipfs, but it should work on Windows 
and Unix too.

Requirements:

* store a complete directory structure and multiple files in a single file
* be able to add, replace and delete files and directories
* binary write/append to files is NOT a requirement but it would be good
* should work with any file-like object that implements read(), write(), 
seek(), tell(), close(), flush() and truncate()   [e.g. no fileno()]
* does not need to store the files in compressed form

Is there something like this available?

Thanks,

    Laszlo
