From c906d974b7c3288bc25a1db87acd7129bcc5cd04 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Stefano Sabatini Date: Sat, 12 Feb 2011 09:12:41 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] Fix script command in a FAQ entry In the FAQ section "How do I encode single pictures into movies?", use -s for generating symbolic links with the ln command. The script was generating hard links, which is not likely what it was supposed to do. Fix issue 2488.
