Directory navigation in command line: Tips and Tricks





 Well it may be absurd for someone who is not so used to with all the command line stuff that one has to undergo, but for the geeks, its the things that keeps using computing enjoyable and something Geekyy!!
  Some people really do not know and may be perhaps do not care for the command line interface commands.
  That's why I have wriiten this piece of information for all those who wanna keep the geeky thing up in themselves
           
1> To move to the next directory we use
     cd:\Destination_folder
2> To move to long  destination you can also type:
     cd:\folder1\folder2\......\folder-n
3> To get into a diferent folder at the same root level
     eg: pics and movs at c:\de\film
     and you are at 
      c:\de\film\mov  and you want to navigate to pics
   then type:
      cd../pics
4> To move back one step up to the parent folder 
    type:
        cd../
5> To move directly to the root folder
     type:
        cd /d drive_letter:\
6> To change drive cd /d drive_letter:\


  Hope it helps!
Adios amigos
