note 79186 added to function.symlink

I recommend using the latter. ---- Server IP: 217.13.201.10 Probable Submitter: 82.139.196.68 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.symlink.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/79186 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/79186/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/79186/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/79186/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/79186/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/79186/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/79186/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/79186 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/79186 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
