I have a 100 gig server full of files, I wanna make a exact backup of how the files and folders are places without all the space it takes, (dont have another 100 gig) that way I will know how my directory looked if anything goes wrong, and it's simple to rebuild it with the external drives and CDs where I got the stuff backed up...

I want a applescript to do this, and nothing else.

you should be able to browse through the directory like your HD, folders should open, but the files should be aliases, or just a alias without the link. Either way would do.

That way, the 100 gigs would be max a few megs, what's the script for this?
