numero = 44031
interpreted = N
texte = Since it appears as though WebCat 4.5 Plugin for WebStar V on MacOSX does not support aliases, does anyone know of a way to convert aliases into symbolic links? I just performed a search on my websites folder, and discovered that there are 101 aliases in numerous locations within that directory structure. To convert these all by hand, I will have to figure out where each alias points; then, using Terminal, I will have to type in the path of each link and to where it should point. This proves to be a daunting and time-consuming task. Does anyone have an suggestions or helpful tips?Thanks,Dennis------------------------------------------------------------- This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list .
