ln

Create hard links and symbolic links between files and directories.

Quick Start

1. Verify availability: ln --version (GNU) or man ln
2. Create a symlink: ln -s /path/to/target link-name
3. Inspect the result: ls -l link-name

Intent Router

• references/cheatsheet.md — Symlinks vs hard links, common flags, creating and replacing links, verification
• references/advanced-usage.md — Relative vs absolute symlinks, atomic replacement, directory links, cross-filesystem constraints
• references/troubleshooting.md — Broken links, dangling symlinks, circular references, cross-filesystem hard link errors
