Add shortcut to files in Launchpad?

Hello,

Is there a tweak or something that will allow me to have shortcuts to files in the Launchpad?

Thanks

Answer:
"There is actually a relatively easy method which involves creating an app for each shortcut using Automator (included in OSX). Takes a couple of minutes at most for each one.

1: Start by opening Automator and choose 'Application'.

2: Drag or double click on the 'Run Shell Script event and put in the command 'open [FILE PATH]'. You can easily get the file path by dragging the file from finder into the box after you have written 'open '.

3: Press File > Export and put in a shortcut name you are happy with. Save the application anywhere in 'Applications'. This can be in a folder if you want (if you have lots).

4: The application will appear in launchpad and clicking it will load up the shortcut set."
