Launcher feature request

A nice feature for the launcher would be the ability to rename the launcher and have it use an .ini file with the same name. So this way, if I changed the name of FirefoxPortable.exe to, say, FeedMeNow.exe, it would use FeedMeNow.ini. PStart does this with its settings file, and it would be nice to see the PortableApps.com launcher do the same. It would keep my PortableApps directory clean (I'm OCD when it comes to stuff like this), anyway, since I currently have a PFF launcher named "Firefox Portable.exe" (note the space).

Yep

It's easy to do, however you have to include the system plugin which adds size.
I did it in Linky.
BTW Steve, I'll send it to you tonight.

As long as it doesn't add more than a few hundred KB to the launcher, I don't mind.
