// Hypervisor-Virtual machine bi-directional communication
// through floppy disk.
//
// This class provides the hypervisor-side of the script.
// For the guest-side, check the perl scripts that
// were available with this code.
// 
// Here is the layout of the floppy disk image (Example of 28k):
//
// +-----------------+------------------------------------------------+
// | 0x0000 - 0x37FF |  Hypervisor -> Guest Buffer                    |
// | 0x3800 - 0x6FFE |  Guest -> Hypervisor Buffer                    |
// |     0x6FFF      |  "Data available for guest" flag byte          |
// |     0x7000      |  "Data available for hypervisor" flag byte     |

// Advanced Floppy file constructor
// 
// This constructor allows you to open a floppy disk image with extra flags.

// F_NOCREATE       Does not truncate the file at open (If not exists, the file will be created)
// F_SYNCHRONIZED   The communication is synchronized, meaning that the code will block until the 
//                  data are read/written from the guest. [NOT YET IMPLEMENTED]
// 
// @param filename The filename of the floppy disk image
