== History ==
SFS is written in [[C (programming language)|C]] and was originally created and released as [[freeware]] in 1998 by John Hendrikx. After the original author left the Amiga scene in 2000, the source code to SFS was released and its development continued by Ralph Schmidt in MorphOS.
Since May 2005 the SFS source code is available under the [[GNU Lesser General Public License|LGPL]] license. Its development has now forked; as well as the original Amiga version, there are now versions for [[MorphOS]], [[AROS Research Operating System|AROS]], [[AmigaOS|AmigaOS 3]], and a version for [[AmigaOS 4]], which have different feature sets but remain compatible to each other. In addition, there is a driver for [[Linux]] to read Amiga SFS volumes,<ref>{{cite web|title=Amiga SmartFileSystem, Linux implementation | url=http://home.elka.pw.edu.pl/~mszyprow/programy/asfs/asfs.txt | accessdate=November 10, 2011 | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120425153531/http://home.elka.pw.edu.pl/~mszyprow/programy/asfs/asfs.txt | archive-date=25 April 2012}}</ref> [[Grand Unified Bootloader|GRUB]] natively supports it,<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.gnu.org/software/grub/manual/html_node/Features.html|title=GRUB features|work=GNU GRUB Manual 2.0|archive-url=http://web.archive.org/web/20151004034021/https://www.gnu.org/software/grub/manual/html_node/Features.html|archive-date=4 October 2015}}</ref> and there are [[free software|free]] drivers to use it from [[UEFI]].<ref>{{cite web|title=Free Software EFI Drivers|url=http://efi.akeo.ie/|access-date=19 October 2015|archive-url=http://web.archive.org/web/20150319154520/http://efi.akeo.ie/|archive-date=21 September 2014}}</ref>
