I remember that some time ago (don't when, sigh!) if I had
$ ln -sf foo.pdf slnk_foo.pdf
I was able to read 'slnk_foo.pdf' double clicking on its icon from
Explorer or 'Computer Resources'. Now AR complains and I can't read it.
Is this to be expected?
BTW, I remember also that the icon of 'slnk_foo.pdf' had the symbol of a
link (like an 'arrow'), now it is as other PDF files icon.
When there was the 'transmutation'? :-)
Thanks,
Angelo.
