Warning: Do not try the directory trick mentioned further down in very delicate files in the root structure, as they could be removed into folders causing random misfunction.

A brief examination of /usr/share/contentlister/mode shows some extra manifest files for the content finder application, with some undocumented tags beyond icons: application, storage, document name... This could be useful for people just looking to reorder their directory structure or document access. I have not seen yet a way to extract all the tags, I guess they are hardcoded in some library but not sure.

BTW I am not sure but I believe that while the memory stick only sees vfat partitions, the SD card can be formatted to ext2. Can someone confirm it? It can be useful to make virtual links towards folders in other devices.
