Wine has a "desktop mode" where it renders a virtual desktop in a window and renders all its windows within that desktop. You can access it through:

```
wine explorer /desktop=arbname,1920x1200 "C:\...\...\application.exe"

```

I used it and some applications have installed icons on the virtual desktop:

Those shortcuts (`.lnk` files) are located in `~/.wine/drive_c/users/Public/Desktop/`, but are binary files.

How can I create a custom one?

**Note:** I am *not* asking how to create a shortcut to a Wine app on my Ubuntu desktop.
