***BOGO*** Res: Konqueror to inform about hard links?

Dude hard links cannot be discoverable,
you are human you look at inodes and see they equal.
Konqueror don't look at inodes to say this file
is the same as that one.

A hard link is just the same file with another name (entry)
it's impossible to know which one was created first
So there is no way to konqueror say that they are
the same.

The only thing you can ask is a column or maybe
the proprieties of the file saying what is the inode.

soft links are trackeable since they are a file that
has a path. (just look at the size and check to see if
that not match with the path it's pointing to)

btw why do you want that?

Hi Branan Riley,

Good question.

man ln seems the answer, on OpenBSD.

I confused (konqueror lied me) soft and hard linked files, (which I 
ignored the existence till today, nor I understand yet why those hard 
links are useful).

# cd /usr/ports/packages/i386/cdrom
# ls -i kde-i18n-nl-3.5.9.tgz
890218 kde-i18n-nl-3.5.9.tgz
# cd /usr/ports/packages/i386/all
# ls -i kde-i18n-nl-3.5.9.tgz
890218 kde-i18n-nl-3.5.9.tgz
#

As both have the same inode # 890218, so they are the same file, not 
twice space used on my hard drive.

It should be easy
 to implement in Konqueror, if not already present.

Which one is the good real one? Don't know yet

But I neeeeeed Konqueror tells me.
