=head1 NAME

B<shtool-mkln> - B<GNU shtool> enhanced ln(1) replacement

=head1 SYNOPSIS

B<shtool mkln>
[B<-t>|B<--trace>]
[B<-f>|B<--force>]
[B<-s>|B<--symbolic>]
I<src-path> [I<src-path> ...]
I<dst-path>

=head1 DESCRIPTION

This is a ln(1) style command. It is enhanced to provide automatic
calculation and usage of relative links with the shortest possible path,
if possible. Usually if I<src-path> and I<dst-path> are not absolute
paths or at least they share a common prefix except the root directory
(``C</>''). When more than one I<src-path> is specified, all of them are
linked into I<dst-path>.

=head1 OPTIONS

The following command line options are available.

=over 4

=item B<-t>, B<--trace>

Enable the output of the essential shell commands which are executed.

=item B<-f>, B<--force>

Force the creation of the link even if it exists. Default is to fail
with error.

=item B<-s>, B<--symbolic>

Create a symbolic link instead of a hard-link.

=back

=head1 EXAMPLE

 #   shell script
 shtool mkln -s foo/bar baz/quux

=head1 HISTORY

The B<GNU shtool> B<fixperm> command was originally written by Ralf S.
Engelschall E<lt>rse@engelschall.comE<gt> in 1998 for I<ePerl>.

=head1 SEE ALSO
