Create Shortcut
Version 0.3.6
Implements the Netscape Navigator 4 Create Shortcut menu item in Firefox. To create a shortcut to the current page bring up the context menu (usually done by right-clicking) and choose Create Shortcut. Selecting the menu item displays a dialog box that allows the creation of a shortcut to the current page/link on your desktop.
Note: This add-on is currently for Microsoft Windows only, see the Deskcut add-on for a cross-platform alternative.

- Added a hidden pref that changes the folder where the shortcut is created, set the pref createshortcut.folder to the path of the folder you wish shortcuts to be created in (remember if you set the pref in about:config you should use single backslash path separators, e.g. c:\windows\favorites, however if you set it in
prefs.jsoruser.jsyou must use double backslashes, e.g. c:\\windows\\favorites). - Added a Brazilian Portuguese (pt-BR) locale, contributed by Fernando Pereira Silveira.
- Added a German (de-DE) locale, contributed by Patrick Ruh.
0.2.1
- Fixed a problem with shortcuts being sent to the wrong location if the desktop folder had been moved, this add-on suffered from the problem described in Bug 228977.
- Polish: Prevent the context menu entry from displaying in some situations (such as when text is selected or when the cursor is in an input box).
- Polish: Append an ellipsis to the Create Shortcut menu entry when the shortcut prompt is enabled.
0.2
- You can now choose to bypass the shortcut prompt and automatically use the default values instead.
- You can now edit the prefix and suffix applied to the shortcut's name.

Hello, I just installed the V8 and firefox does not support the Shortcut Creater v0.3.6
ShortCut Cteater funciona ok en firefox 8
WORKING GREAT for me in 9.1 after I re-installed. THANKS!
:)
LOVE IT!
Should be built in to firefox out of the box!
I am using FF v3.6.19. Your shortcut add-on installed. Bookmark Backup is also installed and working fine. However, the Shortcut will not open on my Desktop upon clicking with my mouse.
What is causing my problem?
3rd edit box in dialog (with browse button) for destination folder would be nice.
Anyway this add-on is very usefull for me!
why isn't this in the original download of Firefox? Thanks
works fine with firefox 11.0!
