[platform-swt-dev] Is there a Desktop Shortcut tool in SWT?

["Jim C." <jlistnews@xxxxxxxxx>]

I've a requirement to edit, create & destroy desktop links across 
platforms.  Easy enough on Unix, unless we can't use the Unix ln command 
and must instead use Window Manager/Desktop specific links.  Right now, 
I'm operating under the assumption that every Windows OS has a different 
format for the *.lnk file and that this might be the same for Unix 
desktop environments.

1. Does SWT provide this functionality?

2. If not and I am allowed to write and perhaps subsequently donate this 
code, would it be accepted?

3. Does anyone know where I can find specs for these file formats 
(Especially Windows)?
