Once the software is downloaded and configured in your system, you might want to create a shortcut for that application in the desktop. Creating a symbolic link would help you in that.

[root@user Desktop]# ln -s /usr/local/bin/SciTE $HOME/Desktop/scite

i.e.

[root@user Desktop]# ln -s [path-to-executable-file] [TARGET-location-where-shortcut-is-to-be-created]
