[QUOTE="aruncroll, post: 1492962, member: 293003"] Hey everybody, I want to make have an alias (shortcut) on my desktop to a subdirectory that's in the hidden "usr" directory (Macintosh HD/usr). I've gotten as far as revealing the folder "usr" by using the terminal, but when I right click on the subdirectory, the option to "Make Alias" does not show up as it normally does. This applies to every subdirectory contained in "usr." What do I need to do in order to make an alias of a folder inside "usr"? Thanks. [/QUOTE]
