Chapter 14. Directory Operations

   


Linux, like many other operating systems, uses directories to organize files. Directories (which are just special types of files that contain lists of file names) contain files, as well as other directories, allowing a file hierarchy to be built. All Linux systems have a root directory, known as /, through which (directly or indirectly) you access all the files on the system.
