-;;; We autoload from FILE dired.el. This will then load dired-x.el

+@item dired-do-relsymlink
@cindex Relative symbolic links.
@kindex Y
-@findex dired-do-relative-symlink
+@findex dired-do-relsymlink
Bound to @kbd{Y}. Relative symlink all marked (or next ARG) files into a
directory, or make a relative symbolic link to the current file. This creates
relative symbolic links like
foo -> /ugly/path/that/may/change/any/day/bar/foo
@end example

@kindex %Y
-@findex dired-do-relative-symlink-regexp
+@findex dired-do-relsymlink-regexp
Bound to @kbd{%Y}. Relative symlink all marked files containing
@var{regexp} to @var{newname}. See functions
@code{dired-do-rename-regexp} and @code{dired-do-relsymlink} for more
