The text and bash output below here need to also be updated if we're changing the path.

Thank youuuu!

Do you mean this?

$ tree example/
example/
├── mew
└── mewtwo -> ./mew

I ran the new code example and got this:

➜ tree .
.
├── mew
└── mewtwo -> ./mew

0 directories, 2 files

Whoops, you're right, I've changed the description, the bash thing is fine based on the tree command output.

The bash section does need to be changed. tree shows you the directory tree of the directory you pass to it. Since './example/' is no longer involved in this symlink() example, it doesn't make sense to show the tree of an unrelated directory. tree . would be more relevant since it shows the symlink that was just created.
