Attached is a simple, no-frills launcher application for Windows. It will open programs, documents, URLs, and run console commands. No installation necessary, just run the binary. It's not perfect, but it works just fine for me.

I've included the debug and release binaries along with the source code for those of you who don't want to compile and just want to run it.

Future release: Lua integration if I ever care enough to come back to it or have a reason to want scripting.

this is pretty useful.

why does everybody like transparency?

This can almost be used as a replacement desktop enviromnet.

Shit, I just found some more code that I wrote WAAAY back in 2007. It's VB.NET code; I don't write VB.NET anymore. I was going somewhere with this (appears to be the beginnings of a shell replacement) but this code was a console that takes your desktop and turns it in to a command prompt.

It was never finished and there's a few bugs, but if anyone wants to take this and run with it, here you go.
