Working with files and directories

Managing files

The directory handling operations (creating, deleting, administering and navigating) allow you to impose a structure on your area of the filesystem. It is the files, however, that store information like program code, text, database records and graphics. The SCO OpenServer system supplies a wide range of commands for managing files. The following sections discuss some of these. Some of the more complex systems are discussed in other chapter; see, for example, ``A quick tour of vi'' for an explanation of how to use the vi(C) editor.
