Using FFS with Ubuntu 11.04 Classic

FFS appears to ignore links which is just what I want but I need to know for
sure.

So if a source folder has a link to a folder in another location will FFS
ignore it or is there some EXCLUDE syntax that will tell FFS "Never follow a
link"?

Is there a FFS manual or FAQ somewhere?

FFS fully supports symbolic links, that is "exclude, follow or direct". The
default is "exclude", see helpfile "comparison settings" for details.
