Ruby generic filesystem libraries

I am looking for a "Virtual File System" type library for ruby. I want to be able to have a completely generic file system that I can easily switch between using Local files and using S3 or using FTP or something like that. (Identical to VFS for Java)

Has anybody used any type of generic file system for ruby (I just need it to support local files and Amazon S3)

Any pointers would be much appreciated.

+1  A: 

Can you use something at the OS level like FUSE? I know of several S3 backends for fuse.

No, I would much rather not rely on FUSE
