The root directory does not have a name, but is always identified by a
backslash ( \
).
You name subdirectories when you create them. A
subdirectory name can be up to eight characters long, consisting of letters
and numbers. It can also have an extension of up to three characters long,
just like a filename.
The directory you are working in is called the current directory. In general,
when you first load the operating system the root directory is your current
directory.
Six basic directory operations are described on the following pages:
l Listing the contents of a directory
l Using pathnames
l Creating directories
l Changing directories
l Copying from one directory to another
l Deleting a directory
You may also want to read about XTREE, an Epson utility that lets you
perform all these functions plus others. XTREE is very easy to use and is
described later in this chapter.
