    I just realized that URL talks about backing up symbolic links, as
opposed to doing an indepth explanation of what they are.  Never the less,
at the top it does say what a symlink is:

    "A UNIX symbolic link is a file that contains a pointer to another file
or directory."

    One could say, it's like creating a Shortcut on a Win9x (and up)
platform.
