#! /bin/bash
#
# symlink all files in an src directory to a target directory
#
# usage: link2 [options] srcDir [targetDir]
#     -v | --verbose	Echo command names
#     -d | --debug	Additional debugging output
#     -h | --help		This text
#     -n | --dry-run	Do not execute
#     -r | --remove 	Remove link/file if it exists
#
# targetDir is created (mkdir -p) if it does not exist.   Existing
# symlinks are replaced.
#

# Examples:
#
#  Link all files in /etc to ./etc, creating ~./etc if needed
#
#    $ linkall -v /etc
#  
#
#  Link all files in ~/git/public/dotfiles to $HOME, replacing existing links
#
#    $ linkall ~/git/public/dotfiles $HOME
