I want to link two files in a way that they are handled entirely as one. Copy, cut, delete operations on one should carry the other along irrespective of their file types. Can anyone help?

I'm only familiar with Windows and Linux, but it's not possible on either system.
Windows does have some special behavior for handling a saved .html and its matching directory of saved images as one unit -- they'll move and delete together automatically -- but as far as I'm aware it's a special hard-coded behavior for those particular files, and not a generally open feature that allows any random pair of files to be hooked up together.

The only way I see to do it is to package them in a .zip or .tar file so that they stay together as a package. That means that you have to extract them to use them.
