+Title2: Create a shortcut
+
+There are two types of shortcuts on Linux, symbolic links which are used to make a folder appear on two locations and *.desktop files.
+For a shortcut to a program, you will create a *.desktop file because it allows you to select an icon and which folder to execute the application from, so that your media files can be found using relative paths.
+On some Linux distributions, you can just right click on the desktop, select that you want to create a program starter and fill in the information.
+
+If you are making an installer however, you might want to automatically generate the desktop file with the .desktop extension using the installation path given by the user.
+CodeStart:
+[Desktop Entry]
+Version=1.0
+Type=Application
+Name=ShortcutName
+Comment=
+Exec=/pathToProgram/program
+Icon=theProgramsIcon
+Path=/pathToProgram
+Terminal=false
+StartupNotify=false
