Yes. Open two dired buffers, one with target directory (includes the =20 file the symbolic link will point to), one with the source directory =20 (will contain the sym-link). Create the link with S. (Using H you =20 will create a hard link, which will make it impossible to decide =20 which is source and which is target, which needs that both are on the =20= same partition/volume/slice/file system.) -- Mit friedvollen Gr=FC=DFen Pete "What is this talk of 'release?'
