When I can be reached via relative paths from I, relative symbolic links are used, too. This high-level functionality is originally designed for developers to create copies of source trees. =head1 OPTIONS The following command line options are available. =over 4 =item B<-v>, B<--verbose> Display some processing information. =item B<-t>, B<--trace> Enable the output of the essential shell commands which are executed. =item B<-a>, B<--all> Really shadow all files and directories in I. Default is to skip CVS related files and directories, backup files, object files, etc. =head1 EXAMPLE # shell script shtool mkshadow -v -a . /tmp/shadow =head1 HISTORY The B B command was originally written by Ralf S. Engelschall Erse@engelschall.comE in 1998 for B. It was later revised and taken over into B. =head1 SEE ALSO shtool(1), ln(1). =cut
