No, I was suggesting to read the manpage for the [file] Tcl command,
by typing "man n file" into the unix shell on a typical distrib.

If you don't know what this means, probably a better approach would be
to read

http://www.tcl.tk/man/tcl8.5/TclCmd/file.htm

Specifically look for [file isdirectory].

Given his step by step questions, I think he may benefit more from a
basic intro to tcl or to computers and programming.
