# NAME

symlink - create a symbolic link to a file

# SYNOPSIS

symlink OLDFILE,NEWFILE

# DESCRIPTION

Creates a new filename symbolically linked to the old filename. Returns `1` for success, `0` otherwise. On systems that don't support symbolic links, produces a fatal error at run time. To check for that, use eval:

        $symlink_exists = eval { symlink("",""); 1 };
