LaunchBar Commander / Re: Is it possible to start a program when you first start LanchBar Commander?

« Last post by mouser on November 07, 2006, 07:32 PM »

while i could add this feature it seems a bit arbitrary.
you could just make a .bat batch file that started launchbar commander and all other apps you wanted.
i can't think of any compelling reason to build it in v.s using a .bat file.. what do you think?

sc has a place where you can specify a number of directories, which will appear on your MoveTo menu..
i could add an additional menu like "changedir to" that could also use these directories to quickly switch your current screenshot directory?

i actually leave firefox minimized to tray when i want to use it, otherwise start time is more like 10 seconds (maybe ive got an evil extension causing that problem?).  ie based browsers start up nearly instantly.

.net applications (and thus .net framework 2) are becoming more and more popular; if you install new software on a fairly regular basis you are going to need to install it sooner or later

i really appreciate all the replies!   
i learned some interesting stuff too.  i guess all things considered i'll just leave it with the onboard sound unless it comes up particularly noisy for some task.

i thought i was going to get a reply saying that the onboard sound is a big cpu drain and so for games and stuff i should avoid it at all costs.  it's nice to know they've improved onboard sound to the point where it's not such a big deal anymore.

one of the things that INFURIATES me about microsoft is there flagrant ignoring of their gui standards..
i think the idea of user interface standardization is important, which is why i generally dislike skins.

it just boggles my mind though how often microsoft uses some weird user interface stuff that i hate.  the idea of removing the menu bar from internet explorer 7? HORRIBLE idea. wtf are these people smoking. ridiculous. it took me 15 minutes of hunting to figure out how to get it back and get to the options..

very good point, it makes sense to me and 80k is a bit heavy.  anyone else want to take a shot at optimizing? the 20k one looks a bit too noisy to me but i could live with the 30k one, and i lthink it looks nice a little lighter.
