You may also want to read about XTREE, a utility provided by
Epson that makes it easier to perform these functions, as well as
others. You can use XTREE to generate a visual diagram of your
subdirectory structure, to move quickly between directories, to add
and remove directories, and so on. XTREE is described later in this
chapter.
