I'm trying to convert a Delphi console-mode program which needs to walk directory trees to FP **and Linux** - is there a standard way to detect and handle recursive symlinks, if the user has been daft enough to create them?
You can use faSymLink in FindFirst/FindNext to detect symbolic links (this works on windows as well) and then use fpReadLink (unit baseunix) to see where the link leads too.
