VB Skript níže vytvoří zástupce.

Je třeba uložit do souboru .wsf – například mymk_shortcut.wsf . Poté nakopírovat do windows\system32 (nebo jinam kam páte proměnnou PATH).

Použití

mymk_shortcut /A /R „C:\zde bude\vytvoren\zastupce“ „C:\obecne\moje.pdf“

Po spuštění bude v „C:\zde bude\vytvoren\zastupce“ vytvořen soubor „moje.lnk“ jenž je zástupce pro „C:\obecne\moje.pdf“.

Pokud bude vynechán parametr /R bude jméno zástupce „moje.pdf.lnk“.

Pokud bude vynechán parametr /A tak se skript zeptá na jméno zástupce před vytvořením (předvyplněno bude „moje.lnk“ nebo „moje.pdf.lnk“).

Ještě má skript parametr /V při jehož použití se zobrazí hláška o úspěšném vytvoření zástupce.
