Thanks, Kartu!

Is there any way to simulate symlinking on the (FAT filesystem formatted) SD card? Maybe via a physical file (e.g.: filename.lnk) that contains nothing but the location of the eBook file it is standing in for?

I have books that I want showing up in multiple folders, but without having to have multiple physical copies.

I know that the academically correct way to do this is via Collections... but they are not manageable for me, as they are simply dumb fixed lists with no sense around sorting by author and/or title within their set of books.
