chere-like behavior from shortcut -- open shell at shortcut-given directory?

[Reckoner]

Hi,

I would like to create a shortcut that will open my favorite shell at
a specific directory embedded in the shortcut. Is this possible?

While we are fantasizing, is it possible to create a shortcut that
would open to a directory that is dropped on it? Chere goes along
these lines, but cannot accomplish these two tricks AFAIK.

Thanks in advance.
