SymLnk(Path1, Path2)
SymLnk: INTEGER(KIND=1) function.
Path1: CHARACTER; scalar; INTENT(IN).
Path2: CHARACTER; scalar; INTENT(IN).
Intrinsic groups: badu77.
Description:
Makes a symbolic link from file Path1 to Path2.
A null character (`CHAR(0)') marks the end of
the names in Path1 and Path2—otherwise,
trailing blanks in Path1 and Path2 are ignored.
Returns 0 on success or a nonzero error code
(ENOSYS if the system does not provide symlink(2)).
Due to the side effects performed by this intrinsic, the function form is not recommended.
