Create shortcut of file only and folder structure
Posted by Luc on November 16th, 2005


I look at a programm that will help replicate folder stucture simple copy
could do the trick but i will end with file duplicate.

So if i could have a programme that will copy only the folder structure but
instead copy file will create shortcut of the file.

any input?

Look at the XCOPY command. With the right option, it will reproduce
the directory ("folder") structure without copying any files. There's
a second option that determines whether it does this for all
directories ("folders") or skips the empty ones.
