Not hard. Create a file on your desktop (most likely ~/Desktop) that looks like this. I'll pretend the script is named shortcut-demo and it is in ~/Desktop.

/usr/bin/env bash
/home/Xerty/document/wine executable.exe

Open a terminal and run chmod +x ~/Desktop/shortcut-demo. This makes it executable (so you can run it), the /usr/bin/env bash means it is a Bash script (TBH simple sh would work fine, but I like Bash). The line after that is the command you want to run. You can have multiple commands there.

Note: specify the full path to executable.exe (i.e., /home/cocomac/Downloads/something/executable.exe instead of executable.exe)
