FS#11825 - make target "Linkinstall" for developing
Hello Rockbox-Developers,
I added a make target called "linkinstall" which works like fullinstall, but symlinks the files instead of copying.
This is a good thing for developing with a simulator build. If you are working on a app, you can type "make linksinstall" after first build, which links the files to the .rockbox-directory in simdisk. Thus, after a change on an existing app, you only have to type "make", which builds the changed apps. The files in the simdisk-directory are direct affected now, so you dont have to type make install or fullinstall after this. This saves a lot of time.
Greetings,
Stummi

I think this is a useful idea.
The only think I'd personally do differently is the name. "link" means "hard link" to me, so I'd go for "symlinkinstall". Maybe that's just me though.
I didn't really review the implementation, but at first sight it looks fine to this non-perl person
Ok, changed this.
I also had to change the intention on make help output for this.

Michael
