Image my chagrin, however, when I saw what I had typed. Instead of: rm junk*I had typed: rm junk * What a difference a single space makes! I suspect that rm sould not have removed directories, but, I am not going to experiment to find out now.
That is why we dactylographically challenged compute(w)rists appreciate
GUI.
I remember my delight upon installing PC Tools Deluxe on my first DOS
computer.
I was able to graft and prune my directories without wreaking havoc
(again) on my installation.
I still fire up my DOS box from time to time and remind myself that
there is software, and great software,
like PC Tools, pfs Pro Write, and of course, Word Perfect 6.2.
