Hmm, if lxc-ls is the analog of ls, then by default maybe we should do what it does: show links. I do agree though it'd be nice to have an option to differentiate that a name is an alias and not the actual thing, maybe in --fancy?. So would pretty much everything except destroy deref? (ie. info, wait, etc...) Would the glob in monitor apply to the link or the deref'ed name? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Introducing Performance Central, a new site from SourceForge and AppDynamics.
