Named Binary Tag (NBT) is a binary format designed for and used by the game Minecraft to store various data including worlds, player data and many other things. This project provides a way to access those data by simply mounting the corresponding data file as a file system, then reading and writing any value as usual file system nodes. By combining with standard Unix file operation tools, batch editing or copying massive amount of data is very easy, comparing to other generic NBT editing tools.

The file system (NBTFS) implementation (mount.nbt(8)) is based on FUSE.

NBT parser and writer are originally written by Lukas Niederbremer as cNBT project which this project is based on.
