I'm really sorry if I'm going way too much off topic with this post. It's just that after breaking my jaws looking for keywords that will lead me through a Super Search or google to a discussion of the subject, I've decided to ask you fellow monks.
To make long story short, my problem is that I can't find a good way to manage the loads of code files that pile up in my hard drive everyday. Currently, I have a directory called "C:\Perl Scripts", which contains all my perl files. But I don't like it that way for two main reasons:
1. I do have code files in other languages. (And no, I'm not really proud of it;) And wouldn't like to have a directory in my root directory for every language.
2. I have a lot of files there and it becomes a real mess. Some files should be grouped together, and some are old and redundant codes I don't want to see (but do want to keep, somewhere, far from my eyes;).

So...Where and how do you monks keep your code files? How do you organize them?
