	Absolutely true.  But how many programs are like that?

	compress-uncompress
	backup-restore

	maybe one or two others....  not very many.  These are one time
	things too.  So if you take it in perspective about 90% of
	my soft links would be directories.  On the amiga there would
	be more reason to soft link files (say, fonts and commercial
	libraries so I can keep stuff bundled with the rest of its
	associated software).
