Will be nice to use sym-links possibilities in new version of TC. It is already supported in Win2000\XP, and (OFCOURSE!) on Unix is is just as part of OS.
Yup, especially when moving a junction to another local drive. I would prefer for it to just delete junction, and create a new one on the new drive. Otherwise, tcmd assumed that a junction is a normal directory, moves all files, and then deletes the junction, breaking all other junctions.
So, for move / copy there should be a set of additional options:
follow junctions where:
- yes = contents of junction are moved / copied, junction removed in destination in favour of the real files/directories.
This will need be default for when destination is: FTP / SMB / Removable Storage (some compression formats support junctions -> ie: TAR)
- no = junction is created on destination... a sub point to this would be wether to correct junction destinations or not, this is if junctions can be relative (ntfs ones cant, but we are talking here junction = symlink, right? this would come in handy for that kylix/linux port).
