Hi,

I created some shortcuts on the desktop for testing.
At first I was asked for the name of the shortcut, some lables later
for the application or URL I'd like to start.

My suggestion:
Wouldn't it be more intuitive for inexperimented users to ask for the
target URL or application at first ? And afterwards try to create the name
MY URL.desktop automaticly ?
This way users don't have to bother about the names of the desktop files.
And the names on the desktop describe the target they are pointing to.
(I just left the name for the desktop file "as is")

I used KDE1.91 for the experiment.

cu,
Joerg
