I thought so myself but then where is the end of a symbolic link and how 
does it differ from a link in Windows?

No need to explain, I could google :-) It worked so I didn't touch it 
and in windows I also just throw everything into one folder, including 
the VM.

No surprises by well meaning automatisms starting the right VM with the 
wrong image and such.

Setting up a headless Squeak from the all in one on my hosted Ubuntu 
server is something I'll try not to repeat. Shell scripts calling shell 
scripts mixed with not used shell scripts strongly reminds me of C 
headers and includes.  My admiration goes to those who set that up.

Cheers,

Herbert
