.pif

I somewhat remember that shortcuts to MSDOS programs are (or were) .pif files rather than .lnk. They also containes various DOS compatibility settings. --Apoc2400 06:23, 12 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Tutorial

Is a tutorial for Windows shortcuts really needed? Would you find a tutorial in an encyclopedia? I don't think so... Takua108 02:22, 29 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
