 SymbolicLinker 1.3
As some of you may have noticed, a number of Unix tools, especially file
and Web servers (such as FTP, NFS, Samba, and Apache), have trouble
resolving the System 7 style alias files created by the Finder's "Make
Alias" command. Many of these tools think these alias files are actually
regular files with nothing inside them, which makes them useless in some
situations. Just about all Unix tools, however, can resolve symbolic
links. Symbolic links are similar to aliases, except that they point
back to the original file in a way that every Unix application can
understand. Until now, however, creating a symbolic link usually
involved a trip to the Terminal.
SymbolicLinker is a tiny contextual menu plugin that, once installed,
allows any user to create symbolic links to files inside the Finder.
SymbolicLinker does this by adding a contextual menu item to the Finder
that generates symbolic links to the selected files. The goal of this
product is to decrease users' trips to the Terminal in order to use the
"ln -s" command.
