To resucitate this old thread. I just found out that... no. Not real
symlinks. They are still a joke.
Limitations:
- Only 31 symlinks per directory (640K is enough, right?)
- Incompatible with other windows.
- Relative symlinks are still restricted to a single volume.
- NTFS only, not on FAT.
- mklink forces you to distinguish between a file or dir symlink
(joke, joke, joke)
- Restricted to administrators by default.
