Symlink dialogue is counter-intuitive #144

The symlink dialogue symlinks files not selected...
I appreciate that there is a bit of warning and the default action selected is not to continue with the symlink dialogue - but, why employ complex double-negatives where a straight forward dialogue acting on what is selected would be less complex and less prone to mistakes.

I've just symlinked a whole raft of files where I would have prefered to delete the files I didn't want - and because of bug #142 I've actually kept the files I didn't want and symlinked the files I did want...

Totally agree! Yes, I didn't beware of the dialog message too much, and that's my fault, but select some file and click on an operation button should perform the operation on those selected records only, this is usual behavior for most (99.999% I think) applications.
