link
link oldfile, newfile
Creates a Unix hard link from a new filename,
newfile, to an existing file,
oldfile, on the same filesystem. The
function returns 1 for success,
0 otherwise (and puts the error
code into $!). This function is
unlikely to be implemented on non-Unix systems. See also symlink .
