Create shortcut to a directory in unix
Hello,
I am having a problem to create a shortcut in a directory linked to another directory in my home directory. For example, I would like to create a shortcut 'outputs', which directly links to the real 'outputs' in my home directory. So, I was wondering if ln is the correct command in this case, or which command shall I use. Thank you so much!

image::exiftool::shortcuts
Image::ExifTool::Shortcuts(3) User Contributed Perl Documentation Image::ExifTool::Shortcuts(3)
NAME
Image::ExifTool::Shortcuts - ExifTool shortcut tags
SYNOPSIS
This module is required by Image::ExifTool.
DESCRIPTION
This module contains definitions for tag name shortcuts used by Image::ExifTool. You can customize this file to add your own shortcuts.
Individual users may also add their own shortcuts to the .ExifTool_config file in their home directory (or the directory specified by the
EXIFTOOL_HOME environment variable). The shortcuts are defined in a hash called %Image::ExifTool::UserDefined::Shortcuts. The keys of the
hash are the shortcut names, and the elements are either tag names or references to lists of tag names.
An example shortcut definition in .ExifTool_config:
%Image::ExifTool::UserDefined::Shortcuts = (
MyShortcut => ['createdate','exif:exposuretime','aperture'],
MyAlias => 'FocalLengthIn35mmFormat',
);
In this example, MyShortcut is a shortcut for the CreateDate, EXIF:ExposureTime and Aperture tags, and MyAlias is a shortcut for
FocalLengthIn35mmFormat.
