Hi, if i try to use "symlink" with a file (resp a folder) that doesn t exist,it doesn t work. Is it normal? How can i create an alias even if the target has been destroyed? (in unix perl it works) many thanks in advance -- Laurent BARDI Ingenieur Systemes & Reseaux Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique INSTITUT de PHARMACOLOGIE et de BIOLOGIE STRUCTURALE Tel : 05-61-17-59-47 http://www.ipbs.fr/ Fax : 05-61-17-59-94 lolo@ipbs.fr CNRS-IPBS 205 Route de Narbonne 31400 TOULOUSE FRANCE /////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// / There is worse than to have not succeded : / / Not to have tried ! / /////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// If it stinks, it's chemistry.
