pyfmf is an open-source project in Python for platform-independent file management. The core of pyfmf is an extensible framework. A console based toolkit (zigo) and a GUI platform (zago, a wrapper around zigo) are extensions of the framework. You can use either just the framework by itself, the toolkit, or the graphic platform to build applications for archiving files, searching files, measuring disk usage, etc. For instance, build your own back-up utility using existing modules to select which directories and which files to back up. You can even use existing modules to detect which files have changed since the last back-up. Then you only have to implement a module (with a few lines of Python code) that executes the actual back-up operation (e.g., writing to a tape device).
