+/* Class: LocalFileSystem
+ *  A filesystem for accessing the local mbed Microcontroller USB disk drive. 
+ *
+ *  This allows programs to read and write files on the same disk drive that is used to program the 
+ *  mbed Microcontroller. Once created, the standard C file access functions are used to open, 
+ *  read and write files.
+ *
+ * Example:
+ * > #include "mbed.h"
+ * >
+ * > LocalFileSystem local("local");             // Create the local filesystem under the name "local"
+ * >
+ * > int main() {
+ * >     FILE *fp = fopen("/local/out.txt", "w");  // Open "out.txt" on the local file system for writing
+ * >     fprintf(fp, "Hello World!");              
+ * >     fclose(fp);                               
+ * > }
+ *
+ * Implementation Notes:
+ *  If the microcontroller program makes an access to the local drive, it will be marked as "removed"
+ *  on the Host computer. This means it is no longer accessible from the Host Computer.
+ *
+ *  The drive will only re-appear when the microcontroller program exists. Note that if the program does
+ *  not exit, you will need to hold down reset on the mbed Microcontroller to be able to see the drive again!
