Hello,
 
Side note: Keep in mind that at least historically hard links have to be on the same filesystem/partition.

So I was using a duplicate file finder, and after awhile I noticed I was using the softlink option instead of the (non-existant) hard-link option I wanted.

So is there an easy tool/command that can convert softlinks to hardlinks? I don't want to say yes ~4354 times (if it asks by file), but I also know there are about 20 "no"s where I want the softlink.
