script/command to fix broken symlinks?

#1 Post by bester69 »

Hi,

Its fourth time it happend to me.. i work in a folder with several subdirectories and drag and drop files among them creating symlinks...then, I move parent folder to other place and all symlinks gets broken cos they were created with absolute path (dolphin drag&drop synlink funtion).. I dont see this is very normal..

Anyways I would need something that update broken path symlinks recursively... just like "fixlinks parentfolder/"



Do you know about any scritpt or command line solution?

thanks.
