Linux command to create myfiletxt in the DATA folder?

You want to do that from command line? Create folder DATA with mkdir DATA. (You should have permissions to create it) If you want to create an empty file, just say touch DATA/myfile.txt Or you can use the vi editor to write to the file (vi will open the file if it exists else will create that file for you), just type vi DATA/myfile.txt You may need to learn some vi keys before you try that. On Linux, try vimtutor! And just in case you think it is boring to type DATA/something... do CD DATA after creating the directory (folder) . Enjoy :)
