This is yet another application to create 'links' (ShortCuts) for files and URLs on the homescreen through the 'Share' option of the 3rd party apps.
Examples:

- Using any browser, after selecting share, a link of the relevant URL can be created on the homescreen. Clicking on the shortcut, the URL can be viewed with a user defined browser.

[DESCRIPTION]
After flashing a new ROM, the need to create all my Shortcuts from scratch became boring.
So I made this application to create all the shortcuts for my programs.
The idea is to select :
- The path to the application's executable file (.exe)
- The copy path, where the shortcut will be copied (usually \Windows\Start Menu\Programs)
- The Icon path. This is not nessesary but in future version if you select an image file
like .png the shortcut will be shown with this image instead of its own icon.
After selecting all the above and saving you can build a list of your favorite shortcuts.
With the press of one button, all shortcuts in your list will be created and copied to desired path.
These is also options for creatings Shortcuts one by one and an option to check paths integrity for each shortcut.
[INFO]
- Application requires Microsoft .NET Compact Framework 3.5 to run
- The first release of the app is BETA because nobody else tried the app but me.
- I tested the app in my HD2 but I think it would run on any other device with 480x800 resolution
- Manu thanks to eboelzner for Sense Interface SDK
[ShortCuter.txt File]
All shortcuts are saved in a text file (ShortCuter.txt) with .ini format.
This is a sample record of a saved shortcut inside the text file.
[ShortCut#1]
Name = iGOPrimo
ExePath = \Storage Card\iGO Primo\iGO.exe
CopyPath = \Windows\Start Menu\Programs
Icon = \Storage Card\Images\iGOPrimo.PNG
[TO DO LIST]
- Apply Icon to Shortcut
- Renerate provisioning XML file (.reg) to directly apply the shortcuts from registry
- Renerate provisioning CAB file from the .reg file
- Support more device resolutions
- Build Silent Mode to help Cookers and flashing in general
Of course, any other ideas and suggestions are welcome...

There's a new file explorer app for android that has a lot of nice features and a weird name.
ScaliCommander http://sites.google.com/site/gslngr/
The developer is very quick to respond to questions and fixes and I'm surprised that it has as few downloads as it does.
Features:
Two Panel browsing with drag-and-drop Copy/Move between folders (single or multiple files)
Image Gallery View with extreme zoom (see 5-10 images per line or zoom in to 1 image per line)
Fully customizable in colors and text/folder sizes
Excellent search capabilities
Some of the setting menus can be hard to find at first but are mainly done by long-pressing on a file or folder.
1: When looking at a folder of images, by default it will be in Details View just showing a list of files. Long-press on the folder bar and select Icon View and then you can pinch to zoom in to your desired thumbnail size.
2: To select a batch of files in Multiselect mode, select the first file, scroll to the last file and long-press and it will give you an option to Select Span
looks quite interesting.
going to read the documentation later, hopefully i'll understand how to operate scali after that

Any suggestions or feedback for future updates?
App is working as intended just a few suggestions.
1. add ability to change the background.
2. Ability to simply drag or move app to a previous folder.
Ex. App is in folder 2 which is within folder 1. So there should be some option to move app from folder 2 to 1.
3. Ability to merge two folder just by dragging on each other.
4. The bottom menu icons get half cut on rounded screen.
5. Most important : modernize the graphics.
(a walkthrough video showing use cases of this app and its ability to be useful would be great.)
