在Unix / Linux平台上运行的Perl脚本是否可以创建Windows快捷方式？

Question

If I want to create a *nix symlink, I'll call symlink(); , if i'm running a script on windows and I want to create a shortcut, I'd use Win32::Shortcut .

But what if I want to create a Windows shortcut if running a script from a *nix machine?

I'm accessing a SMB share on a Windows Server 2003 machine from my *nix machine.

Answer 1

Well, I don't know if Samba provides an API for that. On the other hand, Windows shortcuts are just .lnk files in a specific format.

Answer 2

It's been a long time since the initial question, but I've had the same issue and found a solution.

I wrote an application whose goal is to allow anyone to create lnk files from any OS. I started writting it in bash and then I converted it in C (the sources are available).

It's still fresh, so except me nobody tested yet, but you can have a look here :
