It looks like you have a "mymodules" folder _inside_ your "Desktop/mymodules"
folder. Form the /Users/TamaraB/Desktop/mymodules folder, type these commands.
ls -la
ls -la mymodules
(Feel free to omit any other stuff in your Desktop folder listing for privacy
reasons.)
Or:
cd ~/Desktop/mymodules
ls -laR
The "R" option will create a recursive listing. Or you could just open the
folder in the Finder and look around:
open ~/Desktop/mymodules
I'm thinking you've just made an additional "mymodules" inside your main
"mymodules" by accident.
