Prglnch: Yet Another Game Launcher

[lmstearn]

PrgLnch:

What does it do?

Spoiler

Recommended for older games (or programs) having limited in-game resolutions,
or those games or utilities best run in Batch on multi monitor configurations.
For those with rapidly devolving vowels, this program endeavours to bring
a special consonance between the Prg of execution and the operating host
channeled by an aura of immaculate Lnch!
Could there be some kind of karma permeating through the outer shell of Prg already?...

Features:

• Selectable Resolution for Prg

• Batch Processing of Prgs

• Prg Info Stored in ini File

• Support for Prg on Multiple Displays

• Http Download to Update Prg

• Optional LAA patch which can be Applied to Prg

• An Additional Serving of Delectable Oddities Available to Prg of Limited Perceivable Use

...

Looks great but i don't really know how to use it :/

@SnowFlake: Thanks, yep, it was actually a bit buggy. The current iteration doesn't work well at all on other monitors. Looking at getting a new version up on the weekend.
The description in help "Getting Started" definitely has a wall-o-text feel to it. Perhaps a few pics in there to open it up some.

It's been a bit of a bug Squishathon since the initial release, and in the interim have expanded the content in the bundled help file to ease a new subscriber into a relative feeling of familiarity with the workings of it.
1.3.1 is stable, enjoy.
