SymLinks #303

Closed musichypno closed 1 year ago

musichypno commented 2 years ago

It appears that symlinks may not work in windows.

StarrHelixx commented 1 year ago

Sorry shortcuts in Windows are not symlinks and are not parseable by the recursive readdir library FlipFlip uses. I also tried making a symlink using Windows' Linux sub-kernel, but that actually just ended up copying the directory, not linking it.

Windows doesn't make linking directories easy like it is on Linux ... which is a shame.
