-.TH LNDIR 1 __xorgversion__
-.SH NAME
-lndir \- create a shadow directory of symbolic links to another directory tree
-.SH SYNOPSIS
-.B lndir
-[
-.B \-silent
-] [
-.B \-ignorelinks
-] [
-.B \-withrevinfo
-]
-.I \|fromdir\|
-[
-.I todir
-]
-.SH DESCRIPTION
-The
-.I lndir
-program makes a shadow copy
-.I todir
-of a directory tree
-.I fromdir,
-except that the shadow is not
-populated with real files but instead with symbolic links pointing at
-the real files in the
-.I fromdir
-directory tree. This is usually useful for maintaining source code for
-different machine architectures. You create a shadow directory
-containing links to the real source, which you will have usually
-mounted from a remote machine. You can build in the shadow tree, and
-the object files will be in the shadow directory, while the
-source files in the shadow directory are just symlinks to the real
-files.
-.PP
-This scheme has the advantage that if you update the source, you need not
-propagate the change to the other architectures by hand, since all
-source in all shadow directories are symlinks to the real thing: just cd
-to the shadow directory and recompile away.
-.PP
-The
-.I todir
-argument is optional and defaults to the current directory. The
-.I fromdir
-argument may be relative (e.g., ../src) and is relative to
-.I todir
-(not the current directory).
-.PP
-.\" CVS.adm is used by the Concurrent Versions System.
-Note that BitKeeper, RCS, SCCS, .svn, CVS and CVS.adm directories are
-shadowed only if the \fB\-withrevinfo\fP flag is specified.
-.PP
-If you add files, simply run
-.I lndir
-again. New files will be silently added. Old files will be
-checked that they have the correct link.
-.PP
-Deleting files is a more painful problem; the symlinks will
-just point into never never land.
-.PP
-If a file in \fIfromdir\fP is a symbolic link, \fIlndir\fP will make
-the same link in \fItodir\fP rather than making a link back to the
-(symbolic link) entry in \fIfromdir.\fP The \fB\-ignorelinks\fP flag
-changes this behavior.
-.SH OPTIONS
-.IP \-silent
-Normally \fIlndir\fP outputs the name of each subdirectory as it
-descends into it. The \fB\-silent\fP option suppresses these status
-messages.
-.IP \-ignorelinks
-Causes the program to not treat symbolic links in \fIfromdir\fP
-specially. The link created in \fItodir\fP will point back to the
-corresponding (symbolic link) file in \fIfromdir\fP.
-If the link is to a directory, this is almost certainly the wrong thing.
-.IP
-This option exists mostly to emulate the behavior the C version of
-\fIlndir\fP had in X11R6. Its use is not recommended.
-.IP \-withrevinfo
-Causes any BitKeeper, RCS, SCCS, .svn, CVS and CVS.adm subdirectories to be
-treated as any other directory, rather than ignored.
-.SH DIAGNOSTICS
-The program displays the name of each subdirectory it enters, followed
-by a colon. The \fB\-silent\fP option suppresses these messages.
-.PP
-A warning message is displayed if the symbolic link cannot be created.
-The usual problem is that a regular file of the same name already
-exists.
-.PP
-If the link already exists but doesn't point to the correct file, the
-program prints the link name and the location where it does point.
