Method Summary
	`__init__(self, original, overlay)`
	`abspath(self)` (VFSEntry implementation)...
	`expand(self)` Abstract.
	`original(self)`
	`overlay(self)`
	`relpath(self, from_dir)` (VFSEntry implementation)...
Inherited from VFSEntry
	`del_property(self, name)`
	`filesystem(self)`
	`get_property(self, name)`
	`is_persistent(self)` Does this entry correspond to a physical OS file system entry that can be accessed directly? This information is quite useful under certain circumstances; for example when it is better to pass the file to python's execfile(), rather than exec'ing it from memory (execfile() gives better error messages).
	`name(self)`
	`parent(self)`
	`set_filesystem(self, filesystem)`
	`set_parent(self, parent)`
	`set_property(self, name, value)`
	`sync(self)` Write back to the backing storage, whatever this means.
Inherited from object
	`__delattr__(...)` x.__delattr__('name') <==> del x.name...
	`__getattribute__(...)` x.__getattribute__('name') <==> x.name...
	`__hash__(x)` x.__hash__() <==> hash(x)...
	`__new__(T, S, ...)` T.__new__(S, ...) -> a new object with type S, a subtype of T...
	`__reduce__(...)` helper for pickle...
	`__reduce_ex__(...)` helper for pickle...
	`__repr__(x)` x.__repr__() <==> repr(x)...
	`__setattr__(...)` x.__setattr__('name', value) <==> x.name = value...
	`__str__(x)` x.__str__() <==> str(x)...
