Set how to link identical files. Directories cannot be hard linked on most
systems, therefore directories or always symbolically linked of hard linked
is specified.
Recognised arguments are @code{copy}, @code{hard} and @code{symbolic}.
@code{copy} implies that files and directories are not linked, but duplicated.
@command{ponysay ±L} will give the same output as @command{ponysay ±l} if @code{copy}
or @code{hard} is used. This is because it does link reading and not content or
inode comparison.

Recognised compressions are @option{gz} which uses @option{gzip -9}, and @option{xz}
