Sharity connects you to Windows File Servers...
Sharity is a client for the CIFS (Common Internet File System) protocol, formerly known as SMB (Server Message Block). This is the file-sharing protocol used by Windows NT, 95, 98, 2000, ME, Windows for Workgroups, OS/2, Samba and many others. Sharity mounts these servers in your file system.
Mounting means that you can open files directly from the server with any application you like, as if they were on a local disk. Other clients (such as smbclient from the Samba suite) provide only an ftp-like interface where you can

As far as OS X goes it's not needed. We all seem to be aware that we can mount windows file servers and alter files in situ etc.

"Mounting means that you can open files directly from the server with any application you like, as if they were on a local disk."
I do this regularly with Tiger 10.4.7 and an up to date Windows 2000 Workstation, now serving as my file server.
??Why Sharity??
Also note that I can copy Mac Apps to the Win2000 file server (setup with windows "simple file-sharing only")and run these directly from the win2000 file server.
??Why Sharity??
If have fundamentally misunderstood the value of this product to the average cross platform file sharer, please correct me. I look forward to hearing from the developer or someone intimately familiar with this product. TIA

I guess "Anonymous" commenting that they prefer it on their machine ("we prefer Sharity over Apple's implementation on our own computers") rather than Apple's own implemation is valid but WHY? What makes this better or different than Apple's implementation.
Thank you
