SE Shortcut Generator


This is a program that can create shortcuts for your phone.

Usage
This program can create shortcuts for SE phones (extension ".@"). It's designed to be easy to use, and you can create multiple shortcut at once.

How to use
To create a shortcut, simply just drop the files you want to create shortcuts to on the program.

The first time you run the program, it will ask you for what drive letters (H:/, I:/, J:/ etc.) your phone has. This is needed so that the program can determinate if the file is in the phone memory, on the memory stick, or elsewhere. The program will then create a file called "settings.dat", which stores the drive letters, and can be modified with notepad in a few ways. You can also read a short instruction in it. The file should always be in the same folder as the program, or it will generate a new one.

If the file you try to make a shortcut to isn't in the phone's memory, it will search in the file name for folders named "ifs", "tpa", "system", "usb", "card" or "smsdata", and if one of them exist, the program will use that folder as the "root" folder. You can decide which ones you want it to search for by editing the settings.dat. This is useful if you have a copy of the FS somewhere on your computer. (more info in the file)

The program will create the shortcuts in the same path as the file. But you can also tell the program to save all shortcuts in one folder, by entering the dir in the row under the "Default save directory:". (more info in the file)

If you press "s" when the program has loaded, you will see the information that the program have read from the settings.dat file. If you press it when you create files, the program won't stop to let you know the status of each file, but run on till the last shortcut.


Limitations
You can NOT create/place working shortcuts to/in the "ifs/" folder. (At least not in w810)


Info
