newguy: Added some functionality to the directory listing logic to track where files/dirs are coming from in merged directories. This should allow a cool feature I was playing with that allows VM users to get an idea of where things are on disk and perhaps I can even find a way to let admins manage merged directories by moving stuff between disks easily. The other reason this is useful is I can now easily recover the real path(s) to a file when listing directory entries. Now I'm going to add a TCL command to get access to a complete directory listing with full details about each file via a single call. This should be a big performance increase and should make your job really easy and be useful to other scripts as well.
