Library for Creating ISO-9660 Filesystems

Libisofs is a library for creating ISO-9660 filesystems with extensions like RockRidge or Joliet. It is also a full featured ISO-9660 editor, allowing you to modify an ISO image or multisession disc, including file addition/removal, change of file names and attributes, etc. ISO-9660 images can be made bootable from CD, DVD, or BD via an El Torito boot record and appropriate boot image files from boot managers like GRUB, ISOLINUX, or system specific boot loaders. It is also possible to install a Master Boot Record for hard-disk-like media, e.g. USB memory sticks. Libisofs supports the extension AAIP which allows to store ACLs and xattr in ISO-9660 filesystems and zisofs compression which is transparently uncompressed by some Linux kernels. It is possible to have data file content compressed to gzip format or to have it filtered by an external process.
