well I'm supposing AltME is written in the
rebol sdk version so it's probably using
IShellLink, however the following hack might
also be a solution, this should work on
windows 98 on up:
cShortcut: {[InternetShortcut]
URL=file:///c:\
Modified=9088F98B4E9EC3014C}
write %test.url cShortcut
by the way this can be used with that nifty
asynchronous pluggable protocol thingee to
write clickable scripts all over (just
saying.) :)
I'm not sure what the modified value is for
in the url format so I just copied from
something on my system. you might want to
find out what it means.
