    usage: ln [-fnrsTv] [-t DIR] [FROM...] TO

    Create a link between FROM and TO.
    One/two/many arguments work like "mv" or "cp".

    -f	Force the creation of the link, even if TO already exists
    -n	Symlink at TO treated as file
    -r	Create relative symlink from -> to
    -s	Create a symbolic link
    -t	Create links in DIR
    -T	TO always treated as file, max 2 arguments
    -v	Verbose
