Game Executor 0.01



I'm writing a game launching program. The reason for me writing this is
because I wanted a way to launce my games within 2-clicks.

In Game Execture, you can launce games in a 2-click process, by right
clicking the tray icon, then left clicking the game name.

Clicking the game name will then run a script relative to that
particular game. To create a script, doublie click on the tray icon,
click "New Layout" and then you can add commands, such as mounting a
disc ISO (if Daemon Tools is installed), executing a program, or
displaying a messagebox. You can add as many commands as you like to a
script.

This is only my first release (version 0.01) so there is not much more
to the program than creating simple scripts.

I have ideas for later releases of the program, like scanning the hard
drive for disc images and displaying them in a library. And in the
future I would like the eventually make the program networkable across
a LAN environment so that a game script could run and mount disc images
across a network.

The homepage for my project is

My forums are located at http://www.messiahandrw.dynalias.com/phpBB2/ I
would appreciate any feedback that anyone has towards this project, and
would like to know if anyone has the program working, not working, or
suggestions for future releases.

Thanks, Andrew
