# The `s6-linkname` program

s6-linkname gives the content of a symbolic link or resolves a path.

## Interface

         s6-linkname [ -f ] [ -n ] path

- If path is a symbolic link, s6-linkname prints its content then exits 0.
- Else it prints an error message and exits 111.

## Options

- `-f` : s6-linkname fully resolves path then prints the result on stdout. path does not have to be a symbolic link.
- `-n` : do not print a newline after the result.
