−* LibELM v1.2's directory functions '''DO NOT WORK''' on subdirectories of the root! This means unless you are using it on the root of the device, it will not return any entries! This is to be fixed in v1.3!
+* LibELM v1.3 is out! After a long long time of waiting, I can now proudly say that '''LibELM''' is superior to [[libFAT]] in every way! File accesses have changed to libFAT style (sd:/, usb:/, gca:/, and gcb:/). Cache, as well as a few other fixes, were added to v1.3 by yellow.wood.goblin, giving it speeds greater than libFat. DS support is in the works (supposedly, the DS code in there at the moment works on the AKRPG, but I have not tested the code, nor even checked to see if it compiles.) DLDI code is to be contributed by Normmatt.

'''LibELM''' is a FAT driver, like [[libFAT]]. However, LibELM is based on the amazing ELM FatFs driver by ChaN.

−LibELM now has a ''devoptab'' so now you can use stdio functions (fopen, fread, etc.)! Directories and LFN filenames are now supported! Now completely usable, for '''''everything'''''!

−LibELM is Wii only, at the moment, and supports SD card, USB stick, and ''should'' support SDGecko, but SDGecko has not been tested.
