Keyword Explanation
NOWILDCARD Indicates that symlinks are disabled during
directory wildcard searches.
WILDCARD Indicates that symlinks are enabled during wildcard
searches.
NOELLIPSIS Indicates that symlinks are matched for all wildcard
fields except for ellipsis.
ELLIPSIS Equivalent to WILDCARD (included for command
symmetry).
On the command line, you can set a flag to select the /SYMLINK
qualifier. It uses the keywords DEFAULT, [NO]WILDCARD,
[NO]ELLIPSIS, and [NO]TARGET. In addition, /SYMLINK
and /NOSYMLINK without any keywords are interpreted as
/SYMLINK=NOTARGET and /SYMINK=TARGET, respectively.
