Hi there, Is there a way to have a link (pointing to a directory) resolved to the target directory when changing directory to that link ? Here is what I am trying to achieve: $ ln /cygdrive/c/downloads $ cd downloads $ pwd /cygdrive/c/home/teggy/downloads $ When running the last 'pwd' command, rather than having /cygdrive/c/home/teggy/downloads (which the current directory appended with downloads) I would rather like to have /cygdrive/c/downloads ... I remember seeing that on some sun platform for the root user but don't know the inner details. Thanks for the help, Cheers, Teggy -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
