Several directories can be used to store executables, including /bin, /sbin, and /usr/bin.
Typically, programs store program information in hidden files in your home directory. The 'ssh' program stores cached host keys in the ".ssh" folder.
You will need to be more clear about the target - is 'oracle' a directory?
Recursively removes all files from the directory and all under it.
/boot
Use the command: ls z* for those files in your current working directory.
Regular file Text or binary data Directory Contains other files and directories. Executable file File with the "execute permission" set Symbolic link File is a "shortcut" that points to another file. Device special file An interface to a piece of hardware, such as a printer.(In UNIX devices are treated as "files") Named pipe An interface to a network program.
LS typically stands for "List" and is a command used in Unix and Unix-like operating systems to list directory contents. It displays the files and folders within a specified directory.
It depends on the implementation details of the compiler and on the settings contains in the various project files. By default, the output file (in unix) is named a.out and is located in the same directory as the source file, but that can be changed on the command line and in the makefile. More complex implementations, such as Microsoft Visual Studio, have project files where there is a fine degree of control. You need to look at these control files to locate the executable.
find -type f | wc -l
Configuration files are typically stored in the /etc directory. They can, of course, be anywhere the implementer wishes them to be as long as the process knows where to find them.
No files are actually "invisible." However, certain files may not be displayed by default as a convenience to the user. These are setting / configuration files for programs in the user's directory.
Unix files can be easily transferred to windows via a network connection either by using FTP or by using Samba. Samba allows a Unix file system to be mounted/shared on a Windows system to look like a windows directory.
