link-batch is a minimalist script that generate symlinks from a list in a text file. Usage :

link-batch.zsh link-list.txt

where link-list.txt contains two columns : the first one for the links and the second one for the targets. Example :

~/.config/kitty	~/myfiles/config/kitty
~/.config/nvim	~/myfiles/config/neovim
~/.config/MuseScore	~/myfiles/config/MuseScore/$HOST
...

The two columns must be separated by a tab.

Shell vars like $HOME or $HOST are evaluated to their values.

Can be used to quickly deploy all home links in a fresh box.
