Default Re: Quick UNIX question

Anyone who has ever used UNIX I need some quick help. How do you make a directory that is an alias (shortcut) to another directory? Example:

lrwxr-xr-x 1 jnwu root 18 Sep 21 1992 .xresources -> Public/.xresources


Thanks

You want a symbolic link. Check out the man page for ln
