Great addition to the contextual menu. For those who use Dropbox, symlinks are recommended in the current version, and Symboliclinker is the easiest way to create them. Thanks to the developer. 5 stars utility.
Works in Leopard Too!

Great little app this, saves loads of time. Does what it should and does not interfere with anything.
It works well in Leopard but when you right click on the object you wish to link, it does not appear in the same menu position as in Tiger. You have to scroll down to " Other " and there it is at the bottom.
Many thanks Nick!

I've been very pleased with SymbolicLinker for the past three months. This is a definite time saver that obviates the need for messing around in the unix shell to create symlinks.
My only small reservation, which I expressed to Nick a few weeks ago, is that links created from aliases fail when after alias is deleted. This is in contrast to how the MacOS ordinarily behaves: If you create an alias to another alias both aliases point at the original file, so deleting either alias doesn't damage the functionality of the remaining alias. I suggested modifying SymbolicLinker to point at the target file rather than the alias itself.
This strong little program keeps getting better. Thanks for providing it to the Mac community. We appreciate your effort.
