Actually, symlinks are available in Windows as the NTFS junction feature. Here's a great little GUI utility for creating them (I don't have the Windows command line syntax memorized): http://www.rekenwonder.com/linkmagic.htm On XP and below, you'll want to avoid deleting the symlinks you create directly in Windows Explorer, as this will delete the target folder as well. Unlink before deletion. On Vista and up, this is handled correctly -- only the symlink is deleted. I've never actually run into this myself, but it's good to give the warning.
