Subject: Shortcut file
Date: Tue, 26 Jul 94 08:39:46 BST
From: C.J.Ridd@computer-science.birmingham.ac.uk
Precedence: bulk
(Trying to steer the discussion back on track!)
Could someone please summarise the discussion on the application
shortcut file?
Will there be only one global file, or one file per application? Using
one file for 'normal' shortcuts (Open, Quit etc etc) would be useful,
and the application-specific file could have extra information in it
for that app only, like license keys, or any settings information that
is needed.
Will it (they) be in a standard directory, or pointed to by an
environment variable? Suggestion: locate the file(s) using shel_find()
if possible, then an environment variable if possible, then a specific
directory if possible.
