I have two accounts on the same Mac.

The first account has two directories myScripts and downloads that I want to use from the second account. myScripts is on the environment path, so I can run the scripts there from any place.

How do I create links from these directories in the first account to the second one in a way they work like they do in the first account? I understand that the second account still has a downloads directory by default and that the link may have to be renamed to another thing.

Also, do I have to change the permissions on the files in the first account?
