Keyboard shortcut to “Make Alias Here”

Arul Prasad help me through a Twitter message on How to make a shortcut or an Alias in Mac OS X;

either

  • Right click or “Ctrl + Left Click” on the App and do a “Make Alias” or
  • Select the App > File > Make Alias (Apple Key + L)

However, I wanted something like Windows – Right Click > Drag > Create Shortcut here. So, here are the steps on How to make an Alias by dragging and dropping.

  1. Press the “Apple Key + Option”
  2. Select, drag and drop the file/application you wish to make Alias to your desired folder.
