Or SUP? The tree built with lndir is a real set of directories on the HD with a link to the individual files on the CD. This is opposed to one line to the top of a tree on the CD. Individual files can be replaced by removing the old version and copying a new one in its place. > The goal is to free >up some HD space, but I don't see how using the CD in this context can >work, unless I just stay with the CD release only. 1) Identify all files that have changed. 2) Remove any of them that are links to the CD and replace them with a real file on the disk. 3) Space is still saved for those files which remain unchanged. >PS: sorry for posting the original questiion twice, but I got an odd >notice (from attmail.com) claiming attmail is messed up.
