Basic Linux Terminlogy

• By "Directory" under Linux we mean what is called under Windows "Folder".
  However sometimes in Linux Distributions the word "Folder" is used as well.
• The home directory (called in the File manager "Home") is in Linux denoted by "~".
• Subdirectories are separated in Linux by backslash "/".
  For instance "~/bin" is the subdirectory bin of ~ where ~ denotes Home
  So its from the file manager reached by using Home -> bin
