I did some testing myself and I'm getting slightly different behavior.

I'm running SMSQmulator 2.14.  OS is Lubuntu (Linux
swensont-ThinkPad-L430 3.13.0-74-generic #118-Ubuntu SMP).

I created a director NFA3, put two files in it and then a symbolic link
to another file:

-rw-rw-r-- 1 swensont swensont  0 Dec 27 19:12 test2.txt
-rw-rw-r-- 1 swensont swensont  0 Dec 27 19:12 test.txt
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root     root     16 Dec 27 19:25 xx.txt -> ../NFA/nfa4.txt

When I do a "wdir nfa3_" I see the following:

   test2.txt
   nfa4.txt
   test.txt

It looks like it follows the symbolic link to get the linked file name. If I do a "wstat nfa3_" I get "unknown" on the date stamp on the file.

I don't believe Wolfgang develops on Linux so he might not think about these issues.
