Make iMovie '08 find movies on other drives
Not to be too pedantic, but for those who might consider using this 'fix' elsewhere, the UN*X "ln -s" actually creates what is referred to as "symbolic link" rather than 'soft link'. Conceptually, I would think an alias would be more of a 'soft link', whereas I've always considered symbolic links to be "hard', in that the system actually believes the link to be the actual file/folder.

While you're right about the "symbolic" term against "soft" (ln -s creates a symbolic link), you're wrong considering symbolic links as "hard". UNIX _has_ hard links (just use the ln command without the -s option). |
