To make a symbolic link between directories, am I doing this correctly?
thufir@dur:~$
thufir@dur:~$ ls opt
foo
thufir@dur:~$
thufir@dur:~$ ls bin
bar
thufir@dur:~$
thufir@dur:~$ ln -s opt bin
thufir@dur:~$
thufir@dur:~$ ls opt
foo
thufir@dur:~$
thufir@dur:~$ ls bin
bar opt
thufir@dur:~$
thufir@dur:~$ ls /opt/ActiveTcl-8.5/
bin demos doc include lib license-at8.5-thread.terms licenses man
MANIFEST_at8.5.txt README-8.5-thread.txt
thufir@dur:~$
That seems ok, so that now ~/bin has ~/opt contents, specifically file
foo. This is a dry run, before adding /opt/ActiveTcl-8.5/bin to /usr/bin
in the pattern, so that I don't destroy the directory.
(The point of this is so that when I compile ruby as per http:// beginrescueend.com/integration/tk/ that the compiled ruby has tk
correctly. It seems required to use ActiveTcl in this scenario.)
Add to $PATH environmental variable is the easiest way!

Why not just add /opt/ActiveTcl-8.5/bin to $PATH environment variable?

Well, yeah, I was trying to do that a different way. By the way, this
was a mispost, only in that I meant to post Ubuntu. That being said, I'd
be glad to know the solution
