Add preference to avoid symlink creation #111

Closed elbrujohalcon closed 6 years ago

elbrujohalcon commented 7 years ago

Each time the default release is changed, the installer symlinks /usr/local/bin/erl (and others) with the ones in the default release. This should be optional. A boolean flag (probably ticked by default) should appear in the preferences window so that the user can choose if that is what he wants or not. Upon ticking the checkbox, the symlink should be created as well. When unticking, nothing should happen.

Uses a path override in .profile now - no symlinking - reopen if I'm incorrect.
