[Feature Request] Symlinks not detected as directories

[krlhBlupine]

I have three or four projects all symlinked into a folder that I want to add to my Whaler config, but it doesn't seem to detect them as navigable. I think this is down to an issue with plenary.scandir, where I've also created an issue.

mkdir ~/notebooks/one
ln -s ~/other/two ~/notebooks/two

Whaler only displays notebook one.

Hi @krlhBlupine! Thank you for the suggestion.

Even though I don't see why you would use symlinks instead of aliases directly I understand it can be useful.

I'm implementing it and I will add a PR to plenary regarding your issue!

Again, thank you and I hope you are enjoying Whaler.nvim.

Hi again, the feature is implemented in the branch #20-feat-add-link-directories.
I'm still doing tests but it should be working. Make sure your links are absolute links, otherwise whaler won't be able to properly display the directory.

Once the feature is merged I'll close this.

Thanks so much!
