This is a free adaptation of Slickrun written in .NET and with features inspired by Wox

Make a list of shortcuts, configure them and earn a lot of time by just typing the shortcut and press ENTER

To display the window, by default, the shortcut is ctrl alt space

ctrl alt has the same behaviour as AltGr

When you've used the shortcut, a window appears.

• In the searchbox (point 1), enter the keyword you want to execute
• You'll see as you type the results that correspond to what you're typing (point 2)
• You can type ENTER to execute the first element of the list
• OR you can click on the element you want to execute

command [space] parameters

For instance, I've configured a google search as follow ? my_search. In other words, if I want to search 'aeroplane' in google, I write ? aeroplane.

Here's how the command is configured

the use of $W$\ is defined HERE

This command line is divided as follow:

There are two ways to create a new shortcut

1. Type setup
2. Go to the tab keywords

Type Add <the_keyword_you_want>, a window appear:

1. Type the name of the shortcut you want to configure.

   You can set as many keywords as you want

2. Set the path of the shortcut.

   The path can be:

   • the path of an executable
   • a path to a directory
   • an URL

3. As a convenience you can use the cross to infer the executable.

   Drag and drop the cross on a window and Lanceur will infer the path of the executable

4. Add the argument that will be used when launching the executable
5. RunAs can be:
   • Admin: launch the application with administration privileges
   • CurrentUser: launch the application with the privilege of the current user
6. StartMode can be:
   • Default: keep default configuration of the app
   • Maximized: start in fullscreen
   • Minimized: start minimised in the taskbar
7. The working directory is the path that will be specified to the program as the working directory when starting it.
8. Some notes user can add to the shortcut.

Some keyword are reserved and have some specific behaviour:

Any occurence of these macro in the File Name text box will be replace as follow.
