Windows does have the equivalent of symlinks provided you are running on NTFS with Windows 2000 or later (Google for 'XP junction'). However, by default the system provides no support for manipulating junction points, so they are only really useful in an environment where you can control the tools on the system, not something you can expect to use on arbitrary systems. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
