Hi All,

I have a file that is going to be too big to
fit on a VFAT partition.   (I don't know how to
change the writing program so it writes elsewhere).

Symbolic links don't work on VFAT.

Is there some other way to do it?

Many thanks,

Hi Pat,

Thank you!

From man page, it sounds like I am writing to the
two different locations at the same time:

     "After this call the same contents is accessible in
     two places"

Is this just a play on words?
