Usual `File.symlink` (and `ln -s`) creates a symbolic link as the given argument. GNU coreutils `ln` `ls` has `-r` (`--relative`) option, which resolves the source path relative to the current directory as relative to the link location. ```shell-session $ mkdir src dest $ echo ok > src/x $ ln -s src/x dest $ readlink dest/x src/x $ cat dest/x cat: dest/x: No such file or directory $ rm dest/x $ ln -sr src/x dest $ readlink dest/x ../src/x $ cat dest/x ok ```
