You're right. The referenced URL says setup creates the shortcut, but I
don't think it does. At least the one I ran back around 1.1.7 didn't.
You have to make the shortcut. You can use K95regtl.exe to make a
desktop shortcut, but this won't work as it makes a .LNK type shortcut
which doesn't have console window properties. This is the type of
shortcut you made when you right-clicked K95.exe. In order to create a
.PIF type shortcut in which you can set fonts, etc. you have to follow a
procedure such as the one described in the manual
(K95/DOCS/manual/shortcut.htm).
