Apparatus and method for intuitive file management on the touch screen in mobile communication terminal

PURPOSE: An apparatus and a method for intuitive file management on the touch screen in mobile communication terminal are provided to process file management by touch symbol commands. CONSTITUTION: A terminal inspects one point touch of the touch screen phase(203). The terminal temporarily selects the file of one point touch-sensitive domain(205). In case one point touch holding time is longer than the first base time, the state of file is transformed to the mobile state(207,209). In case the touch is detected to repeat for the second base time in the same zone, the file is opened(211,213). In case continuous multi-point touch is detected for the third base time through the same zone or the other domain, the symbol touch is determined(215,217). In case continuous multi-point touch is the symbol touch, the symbol command operates(219).
