Thread: running app from "alias/shortcut"?

-

good morning all.

i've installed dosbox via ubuntu/softwarecenter. dosbox installed somewhere in system area, evidently default install area.

can run going folder, , running there.

how can create shortcut or alias put on desktop, don't need search. dosbox isn't listed in applications dropdown menu.

files shown locked. if rightclick file in dosbox folder, make link option greyed out. trying drag files or folder gives me error "permission denied".

suggestions?

thanks.
tom
