Hide unchanged symlinks =back =head1 FILES The symlink definitions are read from the file F<.links> or F in the current working directory. Each line contains, separated by spaces: =over =item the symlink type This may be one of 'soft' or 'hard', indicating either a symlink or a hardlink. Note: The use of hardlinks is discouraged and not documented. The following definitions only apply to symlinks. For hardlinks, may the source be with you. =item the source path of the source, i.e. the symlink. Relative to $HOME =item the target path of the target, i.e. the symlink's destination. This is relativ to the source. See L(7) =back Lines beginning with an invalid symlink type will be ignored. =head1 BUGS There are no checks whether the symlink target actually exists
