Thanks for pointing this out. I intended to exemplify something like what I have in my home directory: In ~/Music, I have directories for each artist I listen to, then within those I have directories for each album by that artist, then within _those_ I place the audio tracks. So, for instance, my copy of Arch Enemy's "Wages of Sin" album is stored as FLACs in "~/Music/Arch Enemy/Wages of Sin" As another example, my ~/Documents directory contains directories for Work, Schoolwork, and one entitled "Random Musings." Stuff I do for my job is placed in ~/Documents/Work, while the "Random Musings" subdirectory is where I store various poetry and/or articles I'm writing. Within the Schoolwork subdirectory, I have one subdirectory for each class, so if I had something for my physics class this semester, I'd store it in a directory path of "~/Documents/Schoolwork/Phys 221" for example. Hope that helps. -- Peter Gordon (codergeek42) GnuPG Public Key ID: 0xFFC19479 / Fingerprint: DD68 A414 56BD 6368 D957 9666 4268 CB7A FFC1 9479 My Blog: http://thecodergeek.com/blog/
