shortcut

In computing, a file shortcut is a handle in a user interface that allows the user to find a file or resource located in a different directory or folder from the place where the shortcut is located. Similarly, an Internet shortcut allows the user to open a page, file or resource located at a remote Internet location or Web site.
Shortcuts are typically implemented as a small file containing a target URI or GUID to an object, or the name of a target program file that the shortcut represents. The shortcut might additionally specify parameters to be passed to the target program when it is run. Each shortcut can have its own icon. Shortcuts are very commonly placed on a desktop, in an application launcher panel such as the Microsoft Windows Start menu, or in the main menu of a desktop environment. The functional equivalent in the Macintosh operating system is called an alias, and a symbolic link (or symlink) in UNIX-like systems.

    Hi everyone, looking for some help. I was hoping to have my 'shortcut' button bring me to my selection of radio stations on the infotainment screen, but I am really struggling to get that button to do anything?!?

    Hi everyone, Just noticed this shortcut to some settings accessed by swiping down from the top left or right of the home screen. Maybe I was being a bit slow on the uptake but I've only just noticed this quick way to turn things like the mobile wifi hot-spot on and adjust the screen...
