10 \section{Resource types}
11 \begin{itemize}
12 \item{\texttt{block} - Resources of this type are almost the same as block devices in
13 Single UNIX Specification compliant systems. It is possible to read/write
14 blocks of data of device-specific size from random place of the device.}
15 \item{\texttt{char} - The access to resources of this type is the same as the access to
16 files in Single UNIX Specification compliant systems. It means that you can
17 read random number of bytes from random place of the device.}
18 \item{\texttt{filesystem} - It means that device provides many sub-resources that can be get
19 by using their names, addresses, etc.}
20 \item{\texttt{socket} - buffered stream}
21 \item{\texttt{stream} - unbuffered socket}
