Fsn

Fsn

fsn (File System Navigator) pronounced as "fusion" is a 3D file browser made by SGI for IRIX systems.

It gained some fame after it appeared in the movie "Jurassic Park". In a scene in the film, a main character, Lex, comes upon a computer displaying the interface, declaring "It's a UNIX system! I know this!" After the release of the film, many incorrectly perceived the situation as an example of media misrepresentation of computers, citing the computer game-like display as being an unrealistic Hollywood mock-up.
