Hey Sean,

Alias file!  Just like one created when we option-drag files from one directory 
to another in the Finder. Yeah, I'd love to require 10.6 but not a fit for our 
environment. Honestly, I'm perplexed this feature hasn't already been packaged 
into the standard obj-c libraries until just now.
