Last I heard, soft links are not implemented, and it looks like they just
decided to take out the options for now.

The AmigaDos reference that came with my 3000 says that makelink creates a soft
link by default unless the keyword hard is used.  But it doesn't seem to accept
the keyword hard (nor soft, for that matter), and the links it creates sure
seem like hard links to me.  Does anyone know the full story?
Thanks,
