Description Campbell Barton 2006-05-29 01:43:03 UTC 
If you create a symlink, and want to point it to another file/folder, there is
currently no way todo this.

It seems simple enough functionality to have a text field im the file properties
dilogue that allows you to change the target of a symlink.- Would be even sizer
if there was a "set target" buttion as well, to find the selected file through a
file chooser.
