;;; guile-stash.scm --- A Guile script for creating and managing symlinks with conflict resolution
;;;
;;; Author: Glenn Thompson <glenn@kirstol.org>
;;; Version: 1.1
;;; Created: 2024-12-03
;;; Compatibility: Guile 3.0.9
;;; Keywords: symlink, file management, conflict resolution
;;;
;;; Commentary:
;;;
;;; Guile-Stash is a command-line utility written in Guile Scheme designed to facilitate the creation of symbolic links (symlinks)
;;; for files and directories. It allows users to specify a source file or directory and a target directory where the symlink(s)
;;; should be created. The utility handles potential conflicts with existing files or directories at the target location,
;;; offering users the choice to overwrite or skip the creation of new symlinks.
;;;
;;; Main Features:
;;; - Command-line argument parsing for specifying source and target paths.
;;; - Conflict detection with interactive user resolution options (overwrite or skip).
;;; - Support for symlinking both files and directories.
;;; - Simple and interactive user interface for easy use.
;;;
;;; Usage:
;;;
;;; guile -L . guile-stash.scm --target=<target-dir> --package-dir=<package-dir>
;;;
;;; Replace <target-dir> with the directory where you want the symlink(s) to be created,
;;; and <package-dir> with the path to the source file or directory.
