Wink

Wink is a collection of filesystem link tools for windows.

Symbolic and hard links work on any filesystem but junctions are an NTFS feature so they most definitely won't.

What's Included

  • ln: Create symbolic links, hard links and NTFS junctions.
  • rmlink: Safely remove a junction or a symbolic link; fail if not a link.
  • linfo: Display if a file is a symbolic link or a junction.

Installation

From My Scoop Bucket

  1. Add my scoop bucket to scoop:
    scoop bucket add insomnia https://github.com/insomnimus/scoop-bucket
  2. Update scoop:

Compile It Yourself

cargo install --git https://github.com/insomnimus/wink --branch main
