The Logic File System is a research file system which replaces pathnames with expressions in propositional logic. It allows file metadata to be queried with a superset of the Boolean syntax commonly used in modern search engines.
The actual name is the Logic Information Systems File System, and is abbreviated LISFS to avoid confusion with the [log-structured file system]] (LFS). An implementation of the Logic File System is available at the LISFS website [1].
It is intended to be used on Unix-like operating systems and is a bit difficult to install, as it needs several non-standard ocaml modules.
