makelink-0.2.0 is not a library.
makelink
mklink
isn't usable from non-cmd.exe shells on Windows because it's a Batch built-in.
The version of ln
that comes with Git Bash on Windows copies files instead of creating actual symlinks.
Enter makelink. It makes symlinks. It runs on Windows, MacOS, Linux, and maybe elsewhere.
Installation
You need a recent build of Rust.
Usage
It's the same as the cp
command.
makelink <source> <dest>
Example:
If you forget the order of the arguments (you will), makelink --help
is small and to-the-point:
USAGE:
makelink.exe <source> <dest>
FLAGS:
-h, --help Prints help information
-V, --version Prints version information
ARGS:
<source> This is where the link will point to
<dest> This is where the link will be created
