File links and Nautilus CD-Writer

Hi,

I accidentally noticed that when you add a file link to Nautilus
CD-Writer window, it's not the link that gets burned into the disk, but
the original file. Is this how it always works? I experimented a little
with this and it seems to be so, but bacause I might use this to back up
my files, I would like to know for sure (maybe it depends on something).
To my remembering in Windoze (Nero) it's only the link that gets
written.

Yes, I know, there propably are much better tools for backing up your
data than Nautilus CD-burner, but right now I need something without a
learning curve :-)

I wonder if anybody is going to awnser me at this time of the night.
Maybe someone on the other side of the earth - it's four o'clock in the
afternoon there. Wonder what country is in opposite to Finland on the
earth? I wish I had a globe. Australia maybe - hello! Anyone? Or is it
New Zeland - calling Wellington! ...China?  :-)

Regards,

Ari
