I played with Ubuntu but haven't begin using it, so I'm a bit lower than a
Linux newbie.

There were 3 messages for this echo in tonights QWK packet.

When I the first message I thought about what I do on this XP box.

Every once in a while I open a Administrator CMD Prompt, cd C:\ to be at
the C:\ Directory (ROOT in Linux??), then enter DIR /s/-p   and wait for
the list to finish.

At the C:\ prompt I enter DIR /s/-p >> C:\somesubdirectory\cdir20181010.txt
and press Enter to save the listing to a place where I keep those listings.

BTW, the 20181010 portion is todays Date if I were making a listing tonight.

After Saving the file, if I want to look to see where a file is/was I use
Windows Explorer to Open the file and then (on this XP box) I press the F3
Key and enter what I'm searching for.

Linux most likely has a BETTER WAY, but I'm writing this idea of mine that
with some Linux'ey modification(s) may be of help to someone wanting to
see where a File is stored on their Linux system.

This is what I occasionally do.
If anyone has a suggestion for my method of doing things

The Shields ARE Down  -   Fire Away!
