Oops. My bad! I thought I thought I could download faster to my Windows
computer, which uses a different route, and then copy the directory tree
over to the Linux server, especially as I wanted a copy on my Windows
computer anyway! Sorry!

(There sort of are equivalents to symlinks on Windows, but they're pretty
obscure and fairly new: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NTFS_junction_point and
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NTFS_symbolic_link,
http://answers.google.com/answers/threadview?id=341355 "how to create a
symbolic link under Win2K, WinXP, and above?", but
http://tortoisesvn.net/node/293 "Symbolic links should be supported".)

Oh, and I missed one symlink in my quoted e-mail from yesterday:
acknowledge_footer -> bb_footer.
