/** 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:
 * @code
 * #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);                               
 *     remove("/local/out.txt");                 // Removes the file "out.txt" from the local file system
 *
 *     DIR *d = opendir("/local");               // Opens the root directory of the local file system
 *     struct dirent *p;
 *     while((p = readdir(d)) != NULL) {         // Print the names of the files in the local file system
 *       printf("%s\n", p->d_name);              // to stdout.
 *     }
 *     closedir(d);
 * }
 * @endcode
 *
 * @note
 *  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!
