In an enhanced file system specialized operators are provided, which consolidate contextually sensitive selections of documents from widely scattered sources in a concise presentation, such as a linear list. One specialized operator, _desc, converts a hierarchical tree into a single level, and provides an exhaustive list of the directories of documents that are distributed throughout the tree. Another specialized operator, _star, provides a single level presentation, such as a linear list, of the child elements of its contextual node. The specialized operators are invoked by opening special directories that are presented to the user in a conventional file system interface.
