CALL SymLnk(Path1, Path2, Status)
Path1: CHARACTER; scalar; INTENT(IN).
Path2: CHARACTER; scalar; INTENT(IN).
Status: INTEGER(KIND=1); OPTIONAL; scalar; INTENT(OUT).
Intrinsic groups: unix.
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.
If the Status argument is supplied, it contains
0 on success or a nonzero error code upon return
(ENOSYS if the system does not provide symlink(2)).
Some non-GNU implementations of Fortran provide this intrinsic as only a function, not as a subroutine, or do not support the (optional) Status argument.
