|
In terms of UNIX(r), a directory is a special file which contains a list

|
|
|
of [hardlinks](../dict/hardlink.md) to other files. These other files

|
|
|
also can be directories of course, so it's possible to create a
|

|
|
|
\"hierarchy of directories\" - the UNIX(r)-typical filesystem structure.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The structure begins at the special directory `/` (root directory) and
|
|
|
|
|
all other directory entries are **subdirectories** of it.
