Windows has had symlinks (and hard links) when using NTFS since at least Win2k, but they aren't much used and there isn't any libc support (also, Explorer tends to get a little confused by them). Win32::Symlink provides symlink(2) and readlink(2) replacements, but not lstat(2). If someone wanted to do the work, it might be nice for perl's lstat &c. to support them, but it's likely not worth the effort. Ben
