Virtual File System PhysicsFS

PhysicsFS is a multi-platform library that provides abstract access to various archives. It is intended for use in video games, and the design was somewhat inspired by Quake 3’s file subsystem. The library allows easy access to the contents of ZIP files, among other packed formats, treating them as a virtual file system allowing you to address folders and individual files inside. PhysicsFS is licensed under the zlib license. Xcode project files are included, although the targets for building installation packages (.pkg) seem broken under Xcode 2.1. Framework and static library targets build without errors.
