|
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
|
|
|
.B lnkforward
|
|
|
|
[ \fIgeneric-options\fP ]
|
|
|
|
[ \fB\-\-map\fP \fIdrive\fP=\fIpath\fP ... ]
|

\fIURL\fP
|
|
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
\fBlnkforward\fP examines a Windows .lnk file, determines its target and
|
|
|
|
then opens this target file. In deciding how to open the target file,
|
|
|
|
the usual KDE file associations will be used.
|
|
|
|
.PP
|
|
|
|
The given URL must include a protocol. Specifically, if it is simply a
|
|
|
|
file on the local filesystem, it must be given in the form
|
|
|
|
\fIfile:/path/to/file.lnk\fP.
|
|
|
|
.PP
|
|
|
|
Drive mappings must be supplied (via \-\-map) for any Windows drive
|
|
|
|
referred to in the .lnk file. See the OPTIONS section below for details.
|
|
|
|
.PP
|
|
|
|
This utility is used by the .lnk tdefile plugin, and is
|
|
|
|
part of the official KDE add-ons module.
|
|
|
|
.SH OPTIONS
|
|
|
|
Below are the lnkforward-specific options.
|
|
|
|
For a full summary of options, run \fIlnkforward \-\-help\fP.
|
|
|
|
.TP
|
|
|
|
\fB\-\-map\fP \fIdrive\fP=\fIpath\fP
|
|
|
|
Map the given Windows drive to the given path on the local filesystem
|
|
|
|
(generally its mount point).
|
|
|
|
This option may be passed multiple times.
|
|
|
|
.SH EXAMPLE
|
|
|
|
Suppose that the Windows file \fIc:\\readme.txt.lnk\fP is a link to
|
|
|
|
\fId:\\foo\\bar.txt\fP. Then the following command will open the file
|
|
|
|
\fI/mnt/data/foo/bar.txt\fP in the usual KDE text editor:
|
|
|
|
.PP
|
|
|
|
.RS
|
|
|
|
\fIprompt$\fP
|
|
|
|
lnkforward \-\-map c=/mnt/windows \-\-map d=/mnt/data /mnt/windows/readme.lnk
