- (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.
