fs.multifs
==========

A MultiFS is a filesystem composed of a sequence of other filesystems, where
the directory structure of each filesystem is overlaid over the previous
filesystem. When you attempt to access a file from the MultiFS it will try
each 'child' FS in order, until it either finds a path that exists or raises a
ResourceNotFoundError.

One use for such a filesystem would be to selectively override a set of files,
to customize behavior. For example, to create a filesystem that could be used
to *theme* a web application. We start with the following directories::


    `-- templates
        |-- snippets
        |   `-- panel.html 
        |-- index.html
        |-- profile.html
        `-- base.html
       
    `-- theme
        |-- snippets
        |   |-- widget.html
        |   `-- extra.html
        |-- index.html
        `-- theme.html 

And we want to create a single filesystem that looks for files in `templates` if
they don't exist in `theme`. We can do this with the following code::


    from fs.osfs import OSFS
    from fs.multifs import MultiFS

    themed_template_fs.addfs('templates', OSFS('templates'))
    themed_template_fs.addfs('theme', OSFS('themes'))
    

Now we have a `themed_template_fs` FS object presents a single view of both 
directories:: 
            
        |-- snippets
        |   |-- panel.html
        |   |-- widget.html
        |   `-- extra.html
        |-- index.html        
        |-- profile.html
        |-- base.html
        `-- theme.html

A MultiFS is generally read-only, and any operation that may modify data
(including opening files for writing) will fail. However, you can set a 
writeable fs with the `setwritefs` method -- which does not have to be
one of the FS objects set with `addfs`.

The reason that only one FS object is ever considered for write access is
that otherwise it would be ambiguous as to which filesystem you would want
to modify. If you need to be able to modify more than one FS in the MultiFS,
you can always access them directly.
