<H2>DESCRIPTION</H2>
AppFS is a FUSE-based filesystem to present a manifest-based package format
from remote servers to the local system.  It works over HTTP (by default,
at least).  Remote sites are identified at the top-level of the mounted
directory and all sites are verified by PKI signature.
<P>
AppFS is started with the <B>appfsd</B> daemon, which may also be named
<B>mount.appfs</B>.
