<H2>DESCRIPTION</H2>
|
|
|
|
The
|
|
<I>cleanlinks</I>
|
|
|
|
program searches the directory tree descended from the current directory for
|
|
symbolic links whose targets do not exist, and removes them.
|
|
It then removes all empty directories in that directory tree.
|
|
<P>
|
|
|
|
<I>cleanlinks</I>
|
|
|
|
is useful for cleaning up a shadow link tree created with
|
|
<B><A HREF="/cgi-bin/man/man2html?1+lndir">lndir</A></B>(1)
|
|
|
|
after files have been removed from the real directory.

|
|
