hi paul,
im working on the assumption that all links on Dir1 refer to the files in Dir2 and
is to be deleted without harming the files in Dir2...
#!/bin/bash
for file_d1 in `ls`
do
if [ -L $file_d1 ] #test for a link
then
rm $file_d1
fi
done
if my assumption is wrong then pls reply and ill do what i can to assist.
ciao!
