While you may not need to create directories on a 360KB
diskette-especially if it contains only a few large files-
directories are essential for organizing files on a hard disk.
Whenever you format a disk, MS-DOS automatically creates
one main directory. This directory is called the
root
directory.
Any directories you later create are logically subordinate to the
root directory; that is, they are subdirectories of the root
directory. Here is an example of a simple directory structure:
WORDPROC
SPDSHEET
In this example, you keep your word processing programs and
data files in a directory called WORDPROC, your spreadsheet
programs and data files in a directory called SPDSHEET, and
MS-DOS files in a directory called DOS. The few files that
MS-DOS needs to find as soon as you turn on your computer
(such as COMMAND.COM, CONFIG.SYS, and
AUTOEXEC.BAT) remain in the root directory at the top
level of the structure.
As the number of files in your WORDPROC and SPDSHEET
directories grows, you can create additional directories
subordinate to those two-like this:
WORDPROC
SPDSHEET
