The Shortcut System

The Genero Desktop Client (GDC) can store the information needed to start an application. The information is stored as a shortcut.

Add a shortcut for each application you want the user to launch.

The GDC monitor must be in administration (admin) mode to create or modify shortcuts. To start the GDC monitor in admin mode, use the --admin or -a command line option.

By default, the Genero Desktop Client starts in user mode, where shortcuts and options cannot be modified.

Shortcuts are stored the same way internally across platforms.
