  • Page 55: Files And Directories

    Files and directories his chapter explains how you can store information in an organised way, copy it, and delete it when you no longer need it. Files and directories Everything you create using an application or programming language can be saved as a file, whether it consists of text, graphics or a program.
  • Page 56 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. Three refinements you might find useful later on: • Double-clicking Adjust on a sub-directory icon opens the sub-directory display and simultaneously closes the directory display it came from (the parent).
  • Page 57 Files and directories To create a structure like this, you will need to save files, create directories and copy files into them. These procedures are described on the following pages. To practise saving files, you'll need a work disc of your own. Create one by taking a new disc and formatting it, as described in Formatting a floppy disc on page 28.

For example, drag it to your TestFiles1 directory. You can load the file again by double-clicking on its icon (as long as the relevant application is in the Apps directory, or its icon has been displayed on the screen since you last switched off the...
  • Page 60 Deleting files and directories 4 Release the button Release the Select (or Adjust) button and the file will be copied into the new window. A copy of the icon will appear in the window when this has been done. To move a file (so that the original is not retained in its original location), hold down the Shift key during steps 2 and 3.
  • Page 61 Files and directories 3 Delete the file or directory Click on Delete Your selection will be deleted from the directory. Do this with the copy of file EditTest in directory TestFiles2. Note: deleting a directory also deletes all the files in that directory, so use this option with caution! If any files (or directories) have been locked against deletion they will not, in fact, be deleted.
  • Page 62 Pinboard You can remove the 'dropped' icon from the background as follows: 1 Display the Pinboard menu Move the pointer over the dropped icon and click Menu. 2 Remove the icon Choose Remove icon from the menu. If that option is greyed out, it means that the pointer wasn't quite over the icon when you clicked Menu.

  • Page 74 Using !BatMgr – the battery manager At this stage, you only have a few minutes left. You need to unblank the screen – move the mouse or press a key, or open the lid if it's closed. Then you've got two options, depending whether or not you can use the adaptor: If you have got the adaptor with you, and you're near an external power supply: 1.
  • Page 75 Power considerations Conserving battery power with BatMgr You might want to conserve battery power because • you're getting low on power but need to finish some work; • you've got a fully charged battery but know you'll be using the computer for a long time before you get a chance to recharge again.
  • Page 76 Using !BatMgr — the battery manager When you change the battery Whenever you replace the battery, the computer doesn't know how much charge the new battery has. The BatMgr indicator will show a question mark: (You'll also see the question mark if you've taken the battery out of the computer and are powering the computer using only the adaptor.) If you put in a battery and connect the adaptor, the battery will start charging.

  • Page 77: On The Move

    On the move chapter gives hints guidelines using your computer on the move. Your portable computer gives you the freedom to work wherever you want – not just in the office, classroom or at home, but even when you're on the move. Follow the advice in this chapter and travelling with your computer should be hassle-free.
