Hi! I'm just starting in this Unix adventure comming from signficant
DOS experience.  I know that fragmentation of data files cause a
significant loss in performace in the DOS environment.  Is this also
the case for Unix environments?  

When I was running DOS, I had a number of tools that I could call apon
to re-contigutize the files on the disk.  Are there such tools
available for Unix?  Where could get obtains such tools?  Do they work
with Xenix and other *nixes?

If these questions or their answers are trivial (flames too), and just
wasting bandwidth, you can e-mail me to save more bandwith.

Any leads would be greatly appreciated.
