Como eu crio um link para todos os executáveis em um diretório diferente?

Question

Estou tentando criar links para os binários do mingw no cygwin.

Até agora eu tenho: find /cygdrive/c/MinGW/bin/ -name "*.exe" -exec ln -s {} basename {} \;

mas eu recebo:

Answer 1

Para fazer seu comando funcionar, não acho que você possa evitar o sub-descasque, algo como:

find /cygdrive/c/MinGW/bin/ -name "*.exe" -print0 | xargs -0 -n1 bash -c 'ln -s {} $(basename {})'

Se todos os arquivos estiverem no mesmo diretório, você também pode usar cp -s :

cp -s /cygdrive/c/MinGW/bin/* .

    

Answer 2

Como ln aceita diretórios como destinos:

ln -s /cygdrive/c/MinGW/bin/*.exe /path/to/otherdirectory/

    

Answer 3

for i in /source/directory/*.exe; do
    ln -s $i /destination/directory/'basename $i'
done
