GETTING RID OF "SHORTCUT TO" IN
SHORTCUTS
When you first got Windows 95, and had learned
how to create shortcuts to often-used programs on your
desktop, you may have gone to a bit of work to rename
these shortcuts to something other than what Windows
chose. For example, I decided the words "shortcut
to" were superfluous, because the presence of the
little arrow on the bottom left of the icon already told
me I was looking at a shortcut. I found to my surprise
that after I'd changed the names of perhaps half a dozen
of these icons to delete the words "Shortcut
to", that Windows stopped putting those words in the
name! There seems to be some sort of learning logic
built-in so that you can teach the computer this. (I
wonder if there are any other places in the system where
Windows learns from you?)
