Does Linux Generally Speaking Or Ubuntu Specifically Use 'Shortcuts' To The Master Executable Program, File Or Folder Like Windows Operating Systems Offer Or Not?

Hello. I have a question regarding Linux Ubuntu v.11.10 64-bit operating system.

Does Linux generally speaking or Ubuntu specifically use 'shortcuts' to the master executable program, file or folder like Windows operating systems offer or not?

I have been using Ubuntu for a short time now and I do not see anything relaetd to like "shortcuts"? Am I missing something and it IS there and I have not seen it yet? Please explain.

Please reply.

Thank you!

@ farzanj, kaufmed, ahoffmann, & DaveBaldwin:

Hello again. Nice to see you all.

I am closing this question/thread now. I see you have replied with a different angle as a response to my question/thread. Putting these replies into one continuous answer answers my question in completeness. I often do not get responses like this. Thank you! For that, everyone gets equal 125 points.  

Now, I have to award an Accepted Solution here. Yes, pick the best! Since I see all questions equally applicable and useful; yet to adhere to EE policies, I have to give DaveBaldwin the Accepted Solution. Why? I see my question asked, “Does Linux generally speaking or Ubuntu specifically use 'shortcuts' to the master executable program, file or folder like Windows operating systems offer or not?” I had to develop the fairest means of what is given in order to apply to EE policies for the "Accepted Solution". So I based it on the connectivity of the response to my question I posted here. I see DaveBaldwin's comment is closest in directness of content and context to my question of those replied. Even though all your answers are applicable as answers and well explained.

Again, thank you all!
