Basically I needed a All-in-one solution that would do the following: # Mount any local device or image file without being told specifically what type it is. # Mount any remote filesystem when given a URL ''(i.e. smb://something/somewhere)'' # Try to mount a remote filesystem when given in Windows Format ''(i.e. \\server\share )'' # If the mount point doesn't yet exists, Create it. Don't get me wrong, I completely agree that this could lead to problems! And that you should always mount persistent devices and filesystems with specific and non-ambiguous mount commands!

''I really wanted to call this project mount.auto, but there is already a project called autofs and I am neither creative enough to think of a better name, nor find a good synonym for "auto".''
