Auto running programs

I want to know what people think of a feature for auto running apps when you plug in the flash drive and start up portable apps.

How I see it working is you can select auto running two ways for apps. Auto run on this machine or auto run on all machines.

The auto run on this machine feature would create a file somewhere on the local machine storing which apps to autorun, it could also name the file with unique id that is also stored on the flash drive so another flash drive with the same app wont auto run.

The auto run on all machines will just store what apps to run on the flash drive.

What do you think?

App Launcher

I think you should check or start from here... http://usb.smithtech.us/projects/applauncher.php

If a packet hits a pocket on a socket on a port,
and the bus is interrupted as a very last resort,
and the address of the memory makes your floppy disk abort,
then the socket packet pocket has an error to report Biggrin

Rather than

keeping a file on the local machine, why not use a file on the USB that saves the machine name and references that list on startup?

Have an Awesome Day!

That would be a great idea!!! I always use Pidgin and T-bird whenever I plug in my flash drive...so this would go beautifully with my setup Smile
