Introduction: Delphi Project Launcher (DPL) was born out of frustration (like so many other apps). Browsing through folders to find a certain Delphi project and then browsing the many files in the folder to find the dpr file wasn't my kind of fun. A solution was (for some time) to drop the folders of the latest projects onto the toolbar of Windows Commander. Then I could at least get to these folders quickly. I then decided to make an application to help with this project finding business. DPL is the result. Maybe it'll be a handy helper, maybe it wont. The idea is to let Delphi Project Launcher scan folders for any Delphi project files (dpr) and make a list of them, containing the title of the application (found in the dpr file), the exe file and the path to the dpr file. If no title is found the name on the first line of the dpr file is used. The exe file is found by looking for an exe file with the same name as the dpr file. The list is saved and reloaded next time you run DPL, but you can rescan the folders any time. You can run the exe file or the project file as you wish. This is a nice way to go through your old applications and wonder why you did things in so amateurish a way... The minor list at the bottom is the Hotlist. Here you can add the projects you are using most frequently. Drag and drop items from the bigger list to the hotlist, where they will be sorted alphabetically. The list to the right shows the files of the selected project. You can choose what file types you want to appear in the list. Double-clicking a file in this list opens the file in the File Viewer. DPL can make your file manager display the project folder when launching a project. What's New in This Release: · Added: Now library projects (dlls) are recognized. · Added rc file type (ressource files) to options. · Added Edit This File feature to the File Viewer. Shortcut: F4. · Added Editor path text box to Options.
