FYI, there is something called "junctions" that NTFS supports. It works more or less like symbolic links on GNU/Linux or Unix systems. You need a special command line tool to create them. You can find one such tool here: http://www.sysinternals.com/Utilities/Junction.html I use it to make a symbolic link from my "emacs-22.xyz..." to a folder with the simpler name "emacs", and it works great. _______________________________________________ Help-gnu-emacs mailing list Help-gnu-emacs@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/help-gnu-emacs
