ScrapBook Help - Launching

Any file type recognized by windows can be launched, including web and email addresses.

To launch a file, move the cursor to the line containing the file and press F12 or click launch text.  Selected text can be launched by pressing Ctrl+F12.  The default email client will be launched if the line starts with a valid email address.

Special Note:  When you launch a line, any text after “::” will be ignored. So, for example:

www.google.com
…will launch www.google.com

someone@somewhere.com  :: Jane Doe’s Email
…will email someone@somewhere.com, assuming the system is configured to accept mailto: links

Notepad.exe
…will launch Notepad

control
…open the control panel

C:\readme.txt
…will open readme.txt in the default text editor

Note: sending command line arguments to a program (e.g. Notepad C:\autoexec.bat is not supported).
