=> Shortcuts are created using “links”
on Linux.
=> There are two types of links that can be used namely “soft link” and
“hard link”
=> Soft links are link to the file name
and can reside on different filesystem as well;
=> however hard links are link to
the node of the file and has to be on the same filesystem as that of the file.
=>Deleting the original file makes the soft link inactive (broken link) but does
not affect the hard link (Hard link will still access a copy of the file)
