link has (sort of) the behavior of the previously suggested --as-is option: if the target filename exists as a directory, link will fail; ln will modify the target filename behind your back. (The --as-is option would also modify the target filename, but only if it originally ended with "/" - it wouldn't depend on the contents of the filesystem.) paul _______________________________________________ Bug-coreutils mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-coreutils
