Hello, everyone, and welcome to this lesson.
In this video, we are going to see how you can create symbolic links in Linux operating system.
So let's quickly create a symbolic link and let's give it a name.
So for that, we're going to use the command l n space, the source.
So let's say we create a symbolic link of this file, which is file one and let's give the link name
as link one.
Perfect.
Hit enter.
And you can see the command has been successfully executed.
Let's see the content over here by using the command.
LS So we are listing and you can see we have successfully created a link which is link one which is
pointing to file one which we have created.
Yeah.
You can see it is l l stands for link.
So this is a symbolic link that we have created.
So let me just do it over here.
And here you can see a new file, which is basically a new symbolic link.
Now let me make some changes in this file one.
So let's quickly first read what is there inside it.
So it says, cool.
So let me just modify this.
And let's say cool and hot and let's save this.
Let's check our symbolic link if the changes are being done automatically into that or not.
And you can see the changes are being done into our symbolic link as well.
Now, you can think of this as of a shortcut somewhere in which you make changes to your main file and
it automatically gets done into your symbolic link as well.
So I hope you guys understood how you can create symbolic links and Linux operating system.
Thank you.
