Hi,
I just released µStart 1.3

It is available throught the showcase on purearea.net. The source is included.

This program is a small application launcher specifically designed for use on USB sticks. Thia means that all path information is saved in a relative way. YOu have also access to environment variables or the current drive letter of the drive µStart is currently running on.

You can start applications, open files (e.g. DOC, when a compatible viewer is installed on te computer) or directories.

You'll only see a trayicon from it. Left-clicking on the tray opens the launch menu, right-clicking on it the configuration menu.

It's possible to automatically run or open files on startup and to close the automatically on exit.

And the best thing: It' one executable, no installation and just 68k in size (uncompressed)

Have fun with it...

Sorry, I thought this was clear enough.

Nevertheless, here the direct download link:

And the original website (german) please look in the showcase for an english description.

BTW: The source is included.
I tested it on Win2k and WinXP. If anyone could test it with other windows versions, please tell me how it works. Thanks.
