Review
If you're a C programmer who's been dying to peek at the structures beneath the surface of the Windows 95 file system, this is the book for you. Jam packed with hands-on examples, it illustrates in gory detail how IFSMgr (the Installable File System Manager) in Windows 95 directs generic file-access requests from a variety of sources to the appropriate devices. Sections on VFAT, virtual memory, and VCACHE also describe low level file operations.
