" ln -s linux-2.24 linux " has the effect which makes a soft link " linux" point to "linux-2.24" directory(linux->linux-2.24) ,since cp command has -s (make symbolic links instead of copying) option, I do "cp -s linux-2.24 linux " ,but didn't have the same effection . I want to know whether cp have some tips can do this .Many Thanks. _______________________________________________ Bug-coreutils mailing list Bug-coreutils@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-coreutils
