Is it safer to use the command line unlink command to delete a link to a
folder than to try and use a GUI folder tool like Nautilus?
I have some folders that were linked to other important folders that i
need to delete and I do not want a repeat of last week's "accidently
deleted the contents of a folder when I tried to delete the link to the
folder" episode.
This question got lost in the mail list malfunction.
