Hi, Thanks for taking the time to write this patch and sorry for my sloppiness. At a quick glance, I am a bit concerned with the handling of @ARGV, where it unconditionally strip the leading slash. Are you confident that is correct? "ln -s foo/bar link-name" is very different from "ln -s /foo/bar link-name" Thanks, ~Niels
