[olug] OLUG Digest, Vol 44, Issue 13

[Michael Peterson]

My opinion from using DOS and UNIX and then adding Linux, BSD and Windows
later is:

With a CLI, they are directories.

But with a GUI, they look like and are treated like folders. 

With UNIX and Linux and BSD, they are directories.

For Windows, they can be called both directories or folders.

"They can do such things as change directories, copy files and the sort.
It's pretty amazing...what they all find amazing."

Does it bother anyone else that nobody calls them 'directories' anymore?
Should it bother me when I call them 'folders'? Because it does.
