<p>
GnomeVFS file operations are, for the most part, patterned after
their POSIX equivalents, with the systematic difference that they
accept URIs rather than paths on the local filesystem. This makes
them easy to learn as if you are already familiar with basic commands
such as <code class="function">open()</code>, <code class="function">seek()</code>, <code class="function">write()</code>, etc you will feel right at home
with GnomeVFS after learning a little about URIs.
