I have a project in its own directory:
/dir/to/project/
I have a symbolic link to that directory on the desktop:
/home/user/Desktop/project/
When I double click on that link, the directory window that opens is:
/home/user/Desktop/project/
instead of the real one, /dir/to/project.
The same happens with the command line (Bash).
Is it possible to get what I wish, i.e. go to the directory pointed to, instead of the symbolic one?
Note: the windows environment I am using now is Xfce, but I am also interested in a generic answer.
