It does, more or less, do the same thing. I didn't know perl had a saner readlink() than C or the shell (in C, I had to do some tricks to make it work). Interesting. Nevertheless, since I got enough requests and the program is working, I've now uploaded the sources to my version to tsx-11.mit.edu. It will probably take a while until it is installed into the archive. The program is also available from <URL:ftp://ftp.jyu.fi/private/antkaij/>. Note that you cannot go to the /private directory; you must cd directly to /private/antkaij. To compile the program, you need the libgc4 package from slink or potato, or an equivalent library compiled from the sources in <URL:http://reality.sgi.com/employees/boehm_mti/gc_source/>. I'll produce a .deb in the near future. In the meantime, use the source.
