RE: [WinMac] sending a Windows shortcut file

Looks like it must be a Netscape thing. We use Outlook/Exchange and send
Windows shortcuts by email the whole time (both shortcuts to executables and
shortcuts to documents). Perhaps there's a Netscape setting.

A propos des bottes, is there a way that Macs can understand Windows
shortcuts?
