Random idea:



Hi,
 
Just thought of 2 ideas, tell me what you guys think...
 
1) In the same manner of transparent ftp, we can have transparent http to get web pages we need (cd /www/www.gnu.org/hurd) and maybe even something like cd /www/www.google.com/search?q=gnu
 
 
2) Add mime types to the file information in the file system. This will make the file command trivial, and will allow some pretty neat things to be done (like writing a program that will act diffrently depends on the file type. "run $1" that will open gimp for graphics and vi for text...)

... and then the Mongols attacked the village, killed as many people as they could, burned everything in their path and ofcourse illegally copied software....
