My intent was not to blame windows for not honoring a cygwin(?) invention, but for not having such useful functionality itself. IIRC symbolic links predate cygwin, even predate linux for that matter. In fact they predate windows as we know it today so it is surprising that as so many other good ideas from UNIX made it into MS products that links didn't. Hard or soft. That was my point. -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
