Subl a symlink in windows

#1

when I try to subl a symlink in cygwin or even drag it from windows explorer to sublime text it’s not following the symlink, just showing me weird binary stuff which I guess windows uses to figure out what is being symlinked.
I’m using windows 8.
Is there anything I can do to make subl follow symlinks?

Thanks!
