    Application Hotkey Launcher

    THIS IS A DISCUSSION THREAD FOR APPLICATION HOTKEY LAUNCHER. Please post any questions/issues here.
    DOWNLOAD PROGRAM (you need an account to see links)

    This program was initially made for my website, Pokebot as a pokebot script launcher. I'm too lazy to modify the source to be specific to Neopets, but it will all work just the same



    Let's take a look at the options available in the launcher.

    1. Lists all of the executables which are located in the same folder as the Launcher (your programs folder.)
    2. Re-populates your list of programs. Use this button if you've recently added a new program to your programs folder. The launcher will automatically populate all programs in your folder when you start the program.
    3. "Assign/lock hotkey button". As you can see, each program has one of these buttons next to it. After typing the hotkey you wish to use for the corresponding program, click this button to lock the hotkey and prevent it from being changed. To unlock your hotkey, press the button again.
    4. This is your hotkey field. As you can see, each program has a corresponding hotkey field. To assign a hotkey, simply click on the hotkey box you wish to change and press a button on your keyboard. Whatever button you press will be assigned as your new hotkey. This can be changed at any time as long as your hotkey box is not locked.

    LIST OF VALID HOTKEYS:

    1-9
    A-Z
    F1 - F12

    When you exit the launcher, it will automatically save your last used hotkeys and load them the next time you run it.

    This list will be expanded as this program matures in the future.

    5. This is your hotkey recognition toggle. If hotkey recognition is on, your program will launch when the corresponding hotkey is pressed. If hotkey recognition is off, your scripts will not launch when a hotkey is pressed. This is useful if you have hotkeys assigned to a common button you use when typing on your keyboard. To enable/disable hotkey recognition, either click the checkbox or press the default hotkey (F12).
    6. Hotkey recognition on/off indicator. This is simple a graphical addition which displays whether or not your hotkey recognition is activated.
    7. This is your load default hotkeys button. Use this button if you would like to restore your default hotkeys. The default hotkeys are as follows:

    Program 1: D1 (Number 1 on your keyboard)
    Program 2: D2 (Number 2 on your keyboard)
    Program 3: D3 (Number 3 on your keyboard)
    Program 4: D4 (Number 4 on your keyboard)
    Program 5: D5 (Number 5 on your keyboard)
    Program 6: F6
    Program 7: F7
    Program 8: F8
    Program 9: F9
    Program 10: F10

    This button can also be used with it's own hotkey (Ctrl+D)

    8. This is your unlock hotkeys button. Use this button to quickly unlock all hotkeys so you can reassign them. This button can also be used with it's own hotkey (Ctrl+U)
    9. This is your launch status. Your launch status will tell you the last program you launched, how it was launched (manually or via hotkey) and the time it was launched.
    10. This is your lock all hotkeys button. Use this button to quickly lock all of your hotkeys so they can't accidentally be re-assigned. This button can also be used with it's own hotkey (Ctrl+L)
    11. This is your program box. As you can see, all of the programs in your program folder are loaded into your executable list (#1) and then assigned to 1 of 10 program fields. The launcher supports 10 programs at this time, and will be expanded in the future.
    12. This is your manual program launch button. As you can see, each program has one of these buttons next to it. These buttons serve the purpose of allowing you to launch a program by hand instead of using hotkeys.
