[New Release] Shortcut Creator V2.3

[oruam57]

I was tired of making shortcuts by manual editing, so I made this editor.

The program requires .NET Compact Framework 1 and it was tested on a HTC Magician with WM 2003SE and HTC Polaris with WM6. It has been reported to work on HTC Wizard with WM 2005. Please, feel free to post your experience with different device and operative systems.

Looks great!
I think Odeean did something similar a while back, but beautiful either way.

I tried it on my wizard - wm5 and the app would start but soon as i made any selection an error would come up. see jpg

Nice idea - would like to see working - i am fed up too of manual creation of shortcuts as i forget the syntax :wink:

Whoops! I forgot to include the required assemblies. Please, redownload the zip file, now I have updated it.

Hi oruam57 for simple shortcuts program works fine.

More complex shortcuts e.g.

''\Program files\omapclock\omapclock.exe'' -clock 240 -launch ''\storage card\program files\TCPMP\player.exe'' -restore

your program when editing same lnk just shows ''\Program files\omapclock\omapclock.exe'' -clock 240 -launch in target path / parameters

the last section is missed out - i guess a bug?

even when i add last section manually it will not save it.

look forward to comments\update

Thanks oruam57 now works with the mentioned shortcut. How long can the parameters be? I would make it quite long to suit all circumstances if possible. When will the icon section be finished? Cheers
