So you want to improve your knowledge of Unix but you don't have access to a Unix system. Never fear, the very nice people at www.arbornet.org provide free Shell Accounts. It only takes about 5 minutes to get logged in and set up.
Follow my article "Practice your Unix skills with a free shell account", in the Basic Unix Commands section or click here. This should get you up and running in about 5 minutes. Enjoy.
The touch command creates an empty file.
example, type the following command:
touch songs
The command above creates a blank (or zero length) file called songs. The command doesn't generate any output to your terminal, see the screen shot below for an example. However the command will create your file.
If you want to check that the file was created then type the following command:
ls
The command above lists files in a directory, and as you can see from the screen shot below, the touch command did create a file called songs.
Note: The file I created above is an empty or zero lenght file i.e. there is no data contained in the file.
