Launchy released

Launchy version 1.5.0 has been released.

Launchy is an Mozilla extension and will enable you to open links and mailto's with external applications like Internet Explorer, Opera, Mozilla, Mozilla Firebird, Netscape, Outlook, BSPlayer, Windows Media Player and others. Launchy will auto detect all applications.

Wanna open a link with Winamp? Just right click and say "Open link with Winamp". Wanna send en email to the selected mailto link using Outlook? Just right click and say "Send email using Outlook". I think you get the picture.

It's great for testing and also for using external mail and media applications. Launchy is a Windows only extension!

Would it not be better to look in the registry and map the extension to the application. Maybe looking at how the download manager handles the launching of applications is sufficient.

Otherwise another high quality extension from Denmark.

file a bug about it, with detailed information on how to detect the application and I look into it.
