    hiii

    I need to work a lot with coding in c..

    Many a times it happens that files are dispersed in many folders which have to be modified.
    It's vexing me to cd to the directory in which the file is present...
    SO is there a way that without cding I can open required files as if when I want from different folders...

    Means can we set links between different directories as if all files present in a common buffer
    so that without cding I can modify different files in different folders.. in vim editor

    thanks

    You can create symbolic links (symlinks) using the ln command e.g.
    Code:
    $ln -s /path/to/original/file /path/to/link
