Answer / pitambar mishra
From a layman's point of view,
A file can be stored with in a folder but vice-versa is not
possible.
1. Using ls -l command : In type field (1st field)
d : for directory
- : for general file
2. Using ls -F command :
This command marks the
general file (no mark),
directory as /,
link file as @,
executable file as *.
