Hi!

I work in mixed Unix environment (OSX, Linux, OpenStep), where usual Mac aliases don't work -- they are just files.

Is it possible to make keyboard combination or right click option for soft links? Now I have to type in terminal window something like "ln -s /asd /bfa" for this stuff to work.

Thanks for great app.

Pathfinder currently supports symbolic links. Click on a file and go to "Make Symbolic Link" from the "File" menu, or press Command-Shift-L. This will create a symbolic link in the same directory as the original file. The symlink is an absolute path, so if you require a aymlink with a relative path, I think you are stuck using the terminal.
