form)
or: ln [OPTION]... TARGET
(2nd

In the
2nd form, create a link to TARGET in the current directory.
In the
3rd and 4th forms, create links to each TARGET in DIRECTORY.
Create
hard links by default, symbolic links with --symbolic.
When
creating hard links, each TARGET must exist.
Mandatory arguments to long options are mandatory for short options
too.
--backup[=CONTROL] make a backup of each existing destination
file
-b like --backup but does not
accept an argument
-d, -F, --directory allow the
superuser to attempt to hard link
directories (note: will probably fail due to
system restrictions, even for the superuser)
-f, --force remove existing destination files
-n, --no-dereference treat
destination that is a symlink to a
directory as if it were a normal file
-i, --interactive prompt whether to remove destinations
-s, --symbolic make
symbolic links instead of hard links
-S, --suffix=SUFFIX override
the usual backup suffix
-t, --target-directory=DIRECTORY
specify the DIRECTORY in which to create
the links
-T, --no-target-directory treat LINK_NAME as a normal file
-v, --verbose print name
of each file before linking
--help
display this help and
exit
--version
output version information and exit
The
backup suffix is `~', unless set with --suffix or
SIMPLE_BACKUP_SUFFIX.
The
version control method may be selected via the --backup option or
through
the
VERSION_CONTROL environment variable. Here are
the values:
none, off never make backups (even if --backup is
given)
numbered, t make numbered backups
existing, nil numbered if
numbered backups exist, simple otherwise
simple, never always make
simple backups
