-# The first command line argument is a non-empty relative path
-# specifying the "from" directory.
-# Each other argument is a file name not containing / and
-# names a file in the current directory.
-#
-# For each of these files, we create in the "from" directory a link
-# of the same name pointing to the local file.
-#
-# We assume that the directory structure is a tree, i.e. that it does
-# not contain symbolic links and that the parent of / is never referenced.
-# Apart from this, this script should be able to handle even the most
-# pathological cases.
