Question

How do you put a file in a file in UNIX. Ex. In directory Water Project is file Menu, and in file Menu is files Add, Remove, and modify? I only know how to put files in directories.

Also is there a command to make a file specifically a date file and not just a text file, i.e $> vi filename.

Answer 1

Not sure exactly what you mean. If you simply want to concatenate three text files named Add, Remove and modify and put the result in a file called Menu, you can use "cat Add Remove modify >Menu".



If you want to archive and compress them like with zip files on windows, you can use the tar command:



tar -zcvf Menu.tar.gz Add Remove modify



Then to extract them again:



tar -zxvf Menu.tar.gz



Regarding the command to make a file a 'date' file rather than just a text file, I can't really help since I don't know what you mean by a 'date' file.



But ls -l will list files in a way that shows their last modification time/date if you mean that.

Answer 2

If I understand your question right, you want to create a subdirectory. Generally in the "Save As" dialog, there will be an option for creating a new subdirectory (folder) and then you can put the file in there.



I am not sure what you mean by a date file. You can use the touch command to create an empty file which will have a datestamp of when you ran the command. You can then see the date using "ls -l"



I hope this helps
