Is there anything that could help me memorise the argument order of the ln command?
I’ll take anything from little helper phrases over shell extensions to replacements written in Rust. I only use the command occasionally, but I need a fool-proof solution. Do you have any tricks to get it right?
I remember it because it has the one-arg form which only takes the target, so that’s the first arg. Good luck!
This is the one that works for me, too.
A link operation is meaningless without a target, so that must come first.
If you don’t specify a name for the link, a reasonable name can be inferred from the target. So, the link name goes last, where it can be potentially omitted.
