multiple symlinks

Let's say you have a /target  directory containing

Code:
pic1.jpg
pic2.jpg
pic3.jpg
pic4.jpg
...

and you want to create some links in /linksource

Code:
lnkpic1 pointing to pic1.jpg
lnkpic2 pointing to pic2.jpg
lnkpic3 pointing to pic3.jpg
lnkpic4 pointing to pic4.jpg
...

to create those lnkpic* link you can for example :
just


Code:
cd /linksource
for i in /target/pic*.jpg
do
t=${i##*/}
ln -s "$i" lnk"${t%.*}"
done

If what you want is something else for example, you want /linksource to be a link to /target so that if someone do cd /linksource, he goes to /target and can see the pic*.jpg,
then

Code:
ln -s /target /linksource
