Help producing Desktop Shortcuts using PowerShell.

hello,

i have following script in place:

$filepath="c:\test1"

get-childitem $filepath -recurse | ? {($_.length/1kb) -ge 50} | % {

write-host "found file more 50kb size. file name : $_.name"

move-item $_.fullname "c:\test2"

}

this searches test1 folder , finds files greater 50kb in size , moves files test2 folder.

now, wanted take files moved test2 folder , create shortcuts them on desktop/desktop path.

i found shortcut ps script may lead me in right direction needed assistance task. here script possibly work:

$shell = new-object -comobject wscript.shell
$desktop = [system.environment]::getfolderpath('desktop')
$shortcut = $shell.createshortcut("$desktop\clickme.lnk")
$shortcut.targetpath = "notepad.exe"
$shortcut.iconlocation = "shell32.dll,23"
$shortcut.save()

could looking , if so, best way implement it?
