AppLoader v1.1 released by lopardo on 07-27-2004 at 11:14 PM

Well, not exactly a plugin, it's a program and a plugin which work together:

quote:
The purpose of this program is to allow you to open Messenger Plus!, MSN Messenger and any other program you use with Messenger with just clicking a shortcut. If you install and configure the included Messenger Plus! plugin, then AppLoader will close these programs automatically when you exit Messenger, saving your precious computer resources :-)

Edit: v1.1 released.
Changes in this version:
quote:
- Added "Start MsgPlus automatically at Windows startup" checkbox in main window.
- Move up/down buttons now keep focus on the selected items (thanks Ddunk for reminding me).
- Better checking for Messenger instances when closing programs.
- Minor improvements.

Looks really great lopardo! Can't install it on this comp but I'll be sure to put it on when I get back to my other one.

(y)(y)(y)(y)

One suggestion/remark though:
What about polygamy? Or if your run Windows Msg and MSN Msg at the same time and both programs need the same program to keep running?
Maybe adding an option where you can enable/disable the closing of programs if another application (another messenger) is still running...

If you know what I mean ;)

I thought about that. Imagine you have 3 Messengers, only when you close all of them the other programs will be closed :)

Just a quick suggestion: When you press"Move up" or "Move down", the item becomes deselected and you have to click it again if you want to move it again. Nothing big, I'm  just being picky :P

Damn, I forgot to fix it, thanks for reminding me :) (BTW, you can use ALT+UP/DOWN ARROW, ENTER and DEL)
