What is an FDIR file?

An FDIR file is an archive created by FDIROpener, a command-line tool that can pack and unpack files. It contains one or more files in the File Directory (FDIR) format, a minimal format that stores no metadata. The primary purpose of FDIR is to make the distribution of files more convenient; it does not utilize compression.
