In the most basic sense, yes, but instead of just being a file, you can actually reference the original file with it, symbolic links are much more complex then shortcuts.
i.e: /home/eeems/Desktop/ha/ has a symbolic link located at /home/ha so instead of having to type out /home/eeems/Desktop/ha/ all the time to access that folder you can now use the shortcut of /home/ha/. Having a symbolic link to a file makes it seem like it is there, so symbolically linking a settings file in one location to another will make it editable by whatever accesses both locations, and unlike a .lnk which when you try to open it you open the shortcut file, symbolic links are followed when you edit them, so instead of the symbolic link file, you open the file it is pointed to. In short, I much prefer the symbolic link method over the .lnk method due to the limitations that are not in place over symbolic links that are over .lnk files. 2243

I think I'll try to implement that in Rogue whenever I get the chance to actually do something with it

Ah ok.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symbolic_link or in other words, a file that represents another file. So with symbolic linking you can have the file /home/eeems/some_folder/this_file but with a symbolic link to it located at /link_to_file you can just reference /link_to_file to access it. Symbolic links to directories are also nice 2245

How far along is the filesystem currently?
Also, I was wondering, are you going to allow for symbolic links? 2246

Back on this while relationship topic thing. I haven't tried using technology, and I don't think it would work that well with girls at my school :p

Ok, a few thins.
Settings are now stored under etc/<file name>.set Auto updating now works, and updates (currently, but can be expanded to include apps when I code it into the apps to register on run) work for bin/*.td3 and boot/Kernel.js So now, except for app updates, and extensions to jQuery and other libraries, you can just run it and it will update the files at boot up, or whenever it next checks and there are updates. If you have bin/Growl.alerts.td3 (which is optional) it will alert you when updates have been applied so you can restart if you wish. Also, when I get around to making a terminal viewer app you can see the logs as they happen of updates. |
