Shortcut/lnk to start/programs or start/settings?

Can anyone help me make a shortcut that opens the same system program that is opened when I select programs on the start menu. And another one for settings.

Neither start menu program exactly launches the folder in file explorer. There is some custom program in each case for providing an enhanced display.

I'm also trying to figure out how to make a launcher to the call log program that is different in subtle ways from the list of recent calls in the phone program.

I'd greatly appreciate any help.

Shortcuts using mortscript

Some more digging has yielded:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?p=3478455

:MSClog 'Call history'
:MSSETTINGS 'Settings Dialog'

and it seems that there are some parameters that can be p***** to
:EXPLORE

that makes it behave like the programs folder. I'm not able to turn these into shortcuts though. Maybe it's not possible, but if it is that would be the ideal way.

In the absence of the ideal solution, it turns out that mortscript can send mouse clicks to the screen.

Mortscript
# call log.mscr
mouseclick (75,25)
sleep 200
mouseclick (75,285)
sleep 200
# where /start/phone is
mouseclick (385,615)
sleep 200
mouseclick (235,200)
# /start programs is 335
# /start settings is 380

This works for my screen as of right now, and only in portrait. I'm sure a more complex program can be written. If anything pops out as subject to improvement, please anyone help improve this. So for the moment I have icons that launch the programs I want, and we'll see if time brings anything better.
