rescinded 22 July 1999. Proofed by myself and Theo.
2003-05-04The custom logic used for determining the basename of source fileNils Nordman
was flawed in that it did not account for trailing slashes. Use basename(3) instead. Fixes invocations where target is a directory and source has a trailing slash (e.g. ln -s /tmp/ .). Ok millert@.

2001-08-09Actually use the statf function pointer which I missed while hand-patching.Todd C. Miller
Also, don't mention the -h and -n flags for the 2nd usage line since they are no-ops in that case.
2001-08-09Add -h flag to prevent following a symlink to a dir as the dest.Todd C. Miller
Also add -n as an alias for -h for compat with GNU ln. Patch from Phil.Pennock@globnix.org with minor changes by me.
2000-11-09Change all option list specifications to ".Bl -tag -width Ds". Most manAaron Campbell

existing EXAMPLES sections.

1999-07-09- remove all trailing whitespaceAaron Campbell
* except when it is escaped with a `\' at the end of the line - fix remaining .Nm usage as well - this is from a patch I received from kwesterback@home.com, who has been working on some scripts for fixing formatting errors in mdoc'd man pages Ok, so there could be a cost/benefit debate with this commit, but since I have the patch we might as well commit it...
