To make a symbolic link between directories, am I doing this correctly?
thufir at dur:~$
thufir at dur:~$ ls opt
foo
thufir at dur:~$
thufir at dur:~$ ls bin
bar
thufir at dur:~$
thufir at dur:~$ ln -s opt bin
thufir at dur:~$
thufir at dur:~$ ls opt
foo
thufir at dur:~$
thufir at dur:~$ ls bin
bar opt
thufir at dur:~$
thufir at dur:~$ ls /opt/ActiveTcl-8.5/
bin demos doc include lib license-at8.5-thread.terms licenses man
MANIFEST_at8.5.txt README-8.5-thread.txt
thufir at dur:~$
That seems ok, so that now ~/bin has ~/opt contents, specifically file
foo. This is a dry run, before adding /opt/ActiveTcl-8.5/bin to /usr/bin
in the pattern, so that I don't destroy the directory.
(The point of this is so that when I compile ruby as per http://
beginrescueend.com/integration/tk/ that the compiled ruby has tk
correctly. It seems required to use ActiveTcl in this scenario.)
thanks,
Thufir
