Create .desktop extension file in ~/.local/share/applications. For example:

touch ~/.local/share/applications/isoplex.desktop

Then open it with the text editor:

scratch-text-editor ~/.local/share/applications/isoplex.desktop

And write this in there:

[Desktop Entry]
Version=1.0
Type=Application
Terminal=false
Exec=command to run here
Name=visible name here
Comment=comment here
Icon=icon path here

You must manually find and assign it the path to the executable file, and the icon. Don't forget to make the file executable (chmod +x ~/.local/share/applications/isoplex.desktop).

Then you can drag&drop the desktop file onto Plank or launch it from Slingshot and then 'Keep in dock'.
