LINK(1M)                             SysV                             LINK(1M)



NAME
     link, unlink - link and unlink files and directories

SYNOPSIS
     /etc/link file1 file2
     /etc/unlink file

DESCRIPTION
     link creates a filename that points to another file.  unlink removes
     linked files and directories; however, it is strongly recommended that
     you use rm(1) and rmdir(1) instead of unlink.

     The difference between link/unlink and ln(1) is that link/unlink link and
     unlink without error checking.  This is because they directly invoke the
     link(2) and unlink(2) system calls.

SEE ALSO
     rm(1), link(2), unlink(2)

WARNING
     Only super-user can run these commands.
