A LDI file "libDarnit Image" is a file container clumping multiple files together into one. It is mainly to reduce clutter without needing massive directory hierarchies. Like zip, an LDI can be opened even if it's appended to another file (that isn't a LDI) since the necessary info about it is also located at the end of the file.
To access a file inside an LDI, you need to mount the LDI. This adds all the files in the LDI to the VFS that darnit-filesystem looks in when you try to open a file. All functions except the dynlib functions can trasparently access files in mounted LDI files.
