Re: All the stuff about symbolic links, I send part of the manual
for tcsh (a very good shell!!!!!).

OTHER THINGS
     Symbolic links to directories are no longer a one-way trap-
     door, i.e.	 the parent directory link .. will reference the
     directory the symbolic link is in,	not the	actual parent
     directory.	The actual parent directory is referenced by ./..
     instead.  This works only in the builtin directory	changing
     commands, i.e. cd,	chdir, pushd, pd, and popd. If you want
     to	set the	shell's	idea of	the current path to be the
     correct absolute path, use	the new	builtin	pwd with the -s
     option.
