To post a comment you must log in.
There are two ways to create sym-link :
- [KDE way] you are in the folder where you want your link to be placed → right click "create a link" → opens a dialog to enter the path to the file / folder needed
OR
- [Unity & others' way] you are in the folder where is located the file / folder you want to link to → right click "create a link" → immediatly creates *here* the link you then have to move to the needed location.
Both have their own benefits.
