Dear All,
I'm trying to manage a small personal library using org-mode. The command I
find really useful is org-attach, then choose link. However, unluckily,
seems Window XP seems not work well with this function, what it actually did
is COPY the file... Since I'm managing a little library, I could not bear to
have excess copy. So does anyone has advice how to fix this problem?
Thanks a lot.
Chao

Windows XP does not support symlinks natively, but with the help of a
tool called Junction[1] -- Windows Vista and Windows 7 provide a
program called mklink that creates links.
So: Currently Org does not support linking for WinXP and Windows 7,
but I've put it on the list.
Best,
