- @@@SKUNKHEADER(File Managers / File Handling Utilities)
-
- <P>Welcome to the Skunkware '98 File Managers section. These tools allow
- users to navigate filesystems and manipulate files more easily than with
- the standard UNIX commands. Mostly, these tools make UNIX a little more
- accessible for the novice user. Most expert users will probably be
- comfortable enough with the UNIX commands to not require these tools, but
- if you are running a system which has novice users, these tools will help
- them considerably.</P>
-
- <P>Some of the other tools found in this section provide replacement
- versions of some standard UNIX commands, but contain extra features. For
- example, both the GNU tar and CPIO programs are found here, and they both
- offer considerable advantages over the standard versions. As an example,
- GNU tar can decompress and extract a compressed tar archive with a single
- command, so you do not need to decompress the file first, or set up command
- line pipes. The GNU diff replacement has a very useful addition called
- <TT>sdiff</TT>, which provides for side-by-side file diffing.</P>
