Product Description:

Launcher is a Cocoa adaptation of the MacOS 7/8.x Launcher control panel. Applications, files, and directories may be dragged onto one of the launcher panels, or aliases may be placed in the (Home)/Library/LauncherItems folder/subfolders.

There is now a New Panel� menu item to facilitate creation of new panels. New panels can also be created in a manner similar to the MacOS 8.x Launcher by creating subfolders with a prefix of _ or � on their name.

What's new in this version:

It finally remembers the window position and size now.
You can set it to use a 'Click' sound when you click the buttons.
You can change the name of the default panel from 'Apps' to anything you want.
There are now 'New Panel' and 'Reveal Launcher Folder' menu items.
If you wish to create panel folders 'manually' in the Finder, you can use either the previous _ (underscore) symbol to create panels, or now also use the
(option-8) bullet character, as the older Classic Launcher used to use.

Operating System Requirements:

This product is designed to run on the following operating systems:

Mac OS X 10.2
Mac OS X 10.1

Additional Requirements:

Mac OS X 10.1 or higher

why don't you just drag your hard drive to the Dock? it's fully navigable from there, exactly like in the old Apple menu.

why would you need this? - Version: 3.1, 5/19/2003 02:41PM PST

the Dock *is* the launcher, beefed up for OS X. which explains why i wish i could banish it once and for all from my machine.
