Hello ,

What is the easiest way to get into a directory in solaris and simply create a new file that you can then fill with content?

Thanks

touch <file>
> <file>
echo <string> > <file>

same way as you would create a file in Solaris.

give the file path ( complete path )

at the prompt:

1) cd /<full_path_name>
*cd stands for change directory

2) declare an editor (like VI or Pico) and then the name of the file you want to create - for instance: vi test_file.txt
*you will need to learn some additional commands for the editor you chose to use

Actually there is no requirement to cd to the directory in order to create a file there. Simply edit path/to/directory/newfile (or touch, or cat, or redirect to that file).

The question is slightly weird, as if creating a file would require something special. Provided you have write access to the directory in question, there are few things which are more trivial.
