slmk - symlink make
slmk [-dfnpt] tgt_dir
-d do dirs. By default symlinks are not created for dirs. -f do non-executable files. By default symlinks are created only for executable files. You'll need this for man pages. -n no change. Just report what would be done, don't do it. -p symlink name prefix, eg a `g' for gnu cmds. -t symlink target. By default the executable file, but frequently a wrapper script in the current dir.
Create/replace symlinks in current dir for all executables in a tgt_dir. This can be useful if you install a pkg whose executables are isolated in a separate dir tree and you do not want to add it to you PATH. It can also works for wrapper scripts. Note that an executable that is not accessable, eg not mounted, won't be recognized as an executable.
