Building a file structure
Double-clicking on an application directory loads the application, usually onto the
icon bar ready for use. See the previous chapter for more on this.

Building a file structure
You need to organise your files carefully. If you leave them all in the main directory on
the disc, it will soon become large and unwieldy. There is also a limit to the number of
files and directories you can have in an ADFS directory – 77.
Build up a file structure with files of similar types grouped in directories. For instance,
the file structure of a disc for a newsletter might look something like this:
Double-clicking Adjust on a sub-directory icon opens the sub-directory display and
simultaneously closes the directory display it came from (the parent). This reduces
the number of windows on the desktop.
Double-clicking Adjust on an application icon will simultaneously load the
application and close its directory display.
Clicking Adjust on the close icon closes a directory display and simultaneously
opens its parent directory.
