Use KDE. Right click on somewhere on the desktop, choose new, choose
link. Hmm, sounds like windows to me, except they call it a shortcut.
Perhaps if you would use a different window manager you would have
better luck.
But remember what I said about your attitude? The above text is exactly
what I am talking about. Take a chill pill and ask questions, try
different software that may suit your tastes a bit better, but please
don't continue your rant about how this or that doesn't work like you
want it to. Don't like what you're using, then either switch to
something else or write your own software. Simple huh?
