All files in a directly can be copied without copying the sub directories using FTP by first highlighting them. This allows a user to specifically select only the files they want to transfer.
If you are doing this via the command line interface using the mget command with a mask (such as *) will transfer all files except subdirectories.
A directory is a holding place for multiple files and sub-directories. Are you asking about a specific directory?
for i in * do if [ -d $i ]; then echo $i directory >> /tmp/directories fi done
DIR
C: is the main directory.In computing, a directory, catalog, folderor drawer is an entity in a file system, which contains a group of files and/or other directories. A typical file system may contain thousands (or even hundreds of thousands) of directories. Files are kept organized by storing related files in the same directory. A directory contained inside another directory is called a subdirectory of that directory. Together, the directories form a hierarchy, or tree structure.
Directories are folders that store files and other directories. When you use directories to obtain information, you navigate through them by using commands like "cd" (change directory) to move to different directories. You can list files in a directory using commands like "ls" (list) to view the contents.
A directory is also known as a folder. It is not a file, rather it is where files are stored. Generally many directories make up a program. And many files are contained in each directory.
HP-UX directories can contain files and other directories. Therefore, a directory usually has a parent directory "above" and may also have subdirectories, or child directories "below" within it. Similarly, each subdirectory can contain other files and also can have more subdirectories. Because they are hierarchically organized, directories provide a logical way to organize files.With the help of directories, you can organize your files into manageable, logically related groups. For example, if you have several files for each of several different projects, you can create a directory for each project and store all the files for each project in the appropriate directoryThe structure of an HP-UX directory resembles an inverted tree
Yes, two files can have the same name if they are located in different directories. In most file systems, the file name is only unique within its own directory, allowing the same name to be used in different locations. For example, a file named "report.txt" can exist in both the "Documents" and "Downloads" directories without conflict.
A directory on a computer is a file/disk organization concept. You create directories to logically group files. You can create a hierarchy of directories to organize a large disk.
rm -rv /path/to/directory
The directory. It shows a list of files in the 'root' directory, along with the sub-directories.
Computers store data in a series of directories. Each directory, or folder, may contain files or other directories. If a directory is located within another directory, it is called a sub-directory (or sub-folder) of that folder.
