NAME
sln - create symbolic links
SYNOPSIS
sln source dest
sln filelist
DESCRIPTION
The
sln
program creates symbolic links.
Unlike the
ln(1)
program, it is statically linked.
This means that if for some reason the dynamic linker is not working,
sln
can be used to make symbolic links to dynamic libraries.
The command line has two forms.
In the first form, it creates
dest
as a new symbolic link to
source.
In the second form,
filelist
is a list of space-separated pathname pairs,
and the effect is as if
sln
was executed once for each line of the file,
with the two pathnames as the arguments.
The
sln
program supports no command-line options.
