DESCRIPTION
SymbolicLinker is a tiny contextual menu plugin that, once installed, allows any user to create symbolic links to files inside the Finder. SymbolicLinker does this by adding a contextual menu item to the Finder that generates symbolic links to the selected files. The goal of this product is to decrease users' trips to the Terminal in order to use the "ln -s" command.
WHAT'S NEW
Version 1.2v2:
  • Fixed sporadic problems with new symbolic links not appearing immediately in the Finder in Mac OS X 10.4 and later.
  • Added an Italian localization.
  • Also corrected another typo in the French localization.
REQUIREMENTS
Mac OS X 10.1 or later.

    TOAST UNDER SPAM  for some reason, every time i use symboliclinker to create a symlink and then try to move the symlink to a new location i get a "you do not have sufficient priveleges error..." however if i 'get info' on the symlink first [which always shows i *do* have sufficient priveleges] then close the get info window and move the symlink, it works fine. most peculiar!  (Version 1.1v3)

    CARL STRATA  VERY GOOD and FREE.

    And yes, this (like so many other things) should be part of Mac OS X (aliases in OS X are not 4K files and end up eating megas if you make a heavy use of them. Symbolic Links take up 4Ks like the old aliases in 9.x and prior).

    Thanks to the developer. Good job!  (Version 1.1v3)
