This seems more cross-platform, despite depending on a package that isn't coreutils.

Note

It seems --size can't be omitted

On my GNOME install, xdg-desktop-icon install seems to simply cp the shortcut to ~/Desktop instead of ~/.local/share/applications.

I'll revert that cmd only, as xdg-icon-resource install seems to work as intended
