  2. find (Unix) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Find_(Unix)

    In Unix-like operating systems, find is a command-line utility that locates files based on some user-specified criteria and either prints the pathname of each matched object or, if another action is requested, performs that action on each matched object.

  3. Unix filesystem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unix_filesystem

    On Linux and modern BSD derivatives, this directory has subdirectories such as man for manpages, that used to appear directly under /usr in older versions. /var: Stands for variable. A place for files that might change frequently - especially in size, for example e-mail sent to users on the system, or process-ID lock files. /var/log

  6. Filesystem Hierarchy Standard - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filesystem_Hierarchy_Standard

    Modern Linux distributions include a /sys directory as a virtual filesystem (sysfs, comparable to /proc, which is a procfs), which stores and allows modification of the devices connected to the system, [20] whereas many traditional Unix-like operating systems use /sys as a symbolic link to the kernel source tree.

  7. locate (Unix) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Locate_(Unix)

    locate is a Unix utility which serves to find files on filesystems. It searches through a prebuilt database of files generated by the updatedb command or by a daemon and compressed using incremental encoding. It operates significantly faster than find, but requires regular updating of the database.

  8. Device file - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Device_file

    A simplified structure of the Linux kernel. File systems are implemented as part of the I/O subsystem. Device nodes correspond to resources that an operating system's kernel has already allocated. Unix identifies those resources by a major number and a minor number, [5] both stored as part of the structure of a node.

  9. GoboLinux - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GoboLinux

    GoboLinux is a Linux distribution whose most prominent feature is a reorganization of the traditional Linux file system.Rather than following the Filesystem Hierarchy Standard like most Unix-like systems, each program in a GoboLinux system has its own subdirectory tree, where all of its files (including settings specific for that program) may be found.
