Next Chapter 5. A common metaphor of graphical desktops is the use of folders to represent directories on your hard disk.
Folders contain files and other folders.
A KDE application called Konqueror , the K File Manager, uses this metaphor to help you manage your files. The first time you start KDE, a window with lots of icons in it appears. The pathname of the folder is displayed under the window's toolbar. If you don't see such a window now, click the icon on the panel that looks like a folder with a picture of a house. To open a file or folder, simply click it once with the left mouse button.
