# cd directory-to-change

# the last option on the command line that is a normal file will be the
# link target

# remove all index.php and index.html files in all sub-directories
# note I do not usually remove the index.html files so it is commented, but
# if any index.html is present your apache server may use that instead of
# giving preference to the index.php
