Creating shortcuts from command line



hi,
Is it possible to create desktop shortcuts from the command line? If I
go through the applications menu to a launcher then right click I get
the option to 'add this launcher to desktop', I'd like to be able to
do this from the command line so I can put into a shell script. Is
this possible?
Thanks

.
