Hello,
in section 'SYMBOLIC LINK HANDLING' of symlink(7) the first sentence of the
third paragraph reads:
A symbolic link is a special type of file whose contents are a string
that is the pathname another file, the file to which the link refers.
Is there a {to|of} missing in '... pathname another file, ...'?
Found in man-pages version 3.56 at man7.org.
Thank you for your effort.
Thomas Posch

Thanks, Thomas. Fixed (added "of").
Cheers,
