How Would I Make.....?

[hugoharding]

Basically, I don't want all the different p2p applications on my desktop, so I want to make a little selection program.

Just something like you get when you put a game CD into your drive, it comes up with play game, uninstall, re-install, etc. I would want to have one to open K-Lite, Shareaza, Soulseek, eMule, etc.

How would I make this and with what software?

Cheers,

Hugo.

you mean that when u start a game randomly 1 of these: klite,emule,shareaza or soulseek
opens?

You could just add them on the taskbar mate,and use quick launch,or a new toolbar.

Just right clk the taskbar,then toolbars

[CoolMac]

or make them open when u start windows

The point is that I don't want to clutter up my desktop with icons, so i can't put them on the taskbar.

I just mean like a little java application.

I don't mean when I put a game CD in, what I mean is like when you put a game CD in a menu comes up. And I want to be able to open a java application or something that means a menu will come up so that I can choose which program to open.

It's not a program but it'll remove the clutter

1 create folder "P2P" or suchlike on desktop
2 put shortcuts to programs in folder.

You click once for the folder , then again for the prog - just what you need

actually a program like what hes talking about would be pretty sweet

The hell....

LOTS of programs for this matter. They aren't EXACTLY what you want, but you could live with that.

Stardock's homepage

You can get ObjectBar.

What he means is, to say have a program called "My Program" and it sits on the desktop.

Then he opens this program which has menu's and he selects which one he wants (like opening Start > Programs only that it only has things he want on the desktop)

I dont know if there is out there like that but you can make your own one. I would java for that.

I could try making one in VB... since I don't know Java. I'm kinda interested in seeing something like this... maybe I'll give it a shot.
