Won't resolve symlinks with ".[pP][sS]" in the dirname.
It seems FlashFXP have a problem to resolve symlinks that contains the part ".[pP][sS]".
To explain this further I will use an example.
A symlink called "A.BC.D-Zio" pointing to "Zios_dir" works just fine.
A symlink called "A.PS.D-Zio" pointing to "Zios_dir" doesn't.
The problem is not case sensitive, i.e. A.ps.D-Zio gives the same error.
What should also be mentioned is that it doesn't matter what the dirname is called which the symlink is poiting to. It can be a dir called "A" or "ABCD-Zio" or whatever.
FlashFXP also have no problem in resolving an actual dir with the mentioned part in it.
The problem has been in FlashFXP as long as I can remember, and is still in 2.0x.
I can't find any setting that should/could affect this.
The symlinks work with regular ftp (*nix/Windows), NFTP, ... .
I also have a question regarding symlinks that I can't find answered in docs or settings.
Let's say you have a dir with two symlinks, A and B.
A points to ../subdir1/Dir_A and B points to ../../maindir3/subdir2/Dir_B.
When following the symlink FlashFXP resolves the link and CWDs to the actual path. That means that when issuing "cd .." to jump back a step you won't end up in the dir you came from, but instead you will end up in ../subdir1 or ../../maindir3/subdir2.
Is there no way to cloak this? Several other FTP clients have this feature/option.
