I need to make Symbol Links for some files and was looking for a way to make them. I don't want to use Terminal as I am just getting used to using a MAC. Is there a free program out there that will do this?
Got a tip for us?

No. Aliases won't work. Needs to be a Symbol Link.
Reason I need it is because Air Video won't recognize an Alias, but the author says that Symbol Links do work.

take a look at this article:
http://carlhutzler.com/blog/2007/09/27/easy-symbolic-links-for-mac-os-x/
It includes a link to a little script that adds "create a symbolic link" to your context (right click) menu in the finder
