Tagsistant

"Tagsistant is a semantic file system for Linux, a personal tool to catalog files using tags (labels, mnemonic informations) rather than directories.

Tagsistant replace the concept of directory with that of tag, but since it have to do with directories, it pairs the concept of tag with that of directory. So within Tagsistant a tag is a directory and a directory is a tag.

To be more precise, this is not true with all the directories. First level directories are special. The one called tags/ hosts all the tags. This means that every directory created inside it is infact a tag.

Another, called store/, hosts contents, like files. All the tags created inside tags/ are available inside store/. To tag a file all you have to do is to copy it inside one or more directories under store/.

Another special first level directory is relations/. Inside it you can establish relations between tags using mkdir."
