Correct the 'sharelink' description in the Linux commands documentation
The table at https://help.dropbox.com/installs/linux-commands#What-Linux-commands-are-available-on-Dropbox says, about the sharelink command:
sharelink
dropbox sharelink FILE
This prints out a shared link for FILE.
- FILE Absolute path to FILE
...But that's not correct. FILE doesn't have to be an absolute path, it can be any path (relative or absolute) that points to a file in the Dropbox folder. For example:
dropbox sharelink $HOME/Dropbox/MyDocument.odt
Outputs a share link likehttps://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/$IDENTIFIER1/MyDocument.odt?rlkey=$IDENTIFIER2&dl=0
cd $HOME/Dropbox
Outputs the same share link
dropbox sharelink MyDocument.odtcd $HOME
Still the same share link as the previous two commands
dropbox sharelink Dropbox/MyDocument.odt
(Also, side note, what's the point of providing a post editor with the ability to insert tables and code snippets, if this is going to happen when we hit "Publish"?)
