Someone here told me a convenient way to create a link in Nautilus, namely dragging a file or directory to where I want the link, but before letting go of the mouse drag button, press Alt. Letting go with the Alt key down gives a little popup menu.

Now, I'd like to know of an easy way to delete *just* the link, not what it's pointing to. I'd like an easy mouse-driven way, but presently I cannot even find a command line way. man ln doesn't give anything useful that I can see. apropos didn't show much of promise either.

I have a way to do it, but it involves too many steps, namely renaming what the link points to, deleting the now-dangling link, then renaming the object back.
