NAME
       sln - create symbolic links

SYNOPSIS
       sln source dest
       sln filelist

DESCRIPTION
       The  sln  program creates symbolic links.  Unlike the ln(1) program, it
       is statically linked.  This means that if for some reason  the  dynamic
       linker  is  not  working, sln can be used to make symbolic links to dy-
       namic libraries.

       The command line has two forms.  In the first form, it creates dest  as
       a new symbolic link to source.

       In  the  second  form,  filelist  is a list of space-separated pathname
       pairs, and the effect is as if sln was executed once for each  line  of
       the file, with the two pathnames as the arguments.

       The sln program supports no command-line options.
