Exelink

Exelink

In the early 90s I was learning DOS and Unix. One thing I really liked about Unix was the concept of “symbolic links”. It meant you could install programs in their own directories and symlink the executable to somewhere in your $PATH. DOS couldn’t do that. So you ended up with horrendously long path names. And DOS had a 120 character limit. Ugh. So I wrote a TSR, called “exelink” which kludged it.
