lets you automatically run applications or display messages at a given time.
You can use LaunchPad to run those long unattended jobs that usually take place after hours, like disk optimization, tape backups, daily reports, etc. Choose to run a program, run a DOS command, display a message, communicate with programs using DDE commands and scripts, send keystrokes to programs, shutdown your system, reboot your system, or quit a program.
You can also have LaunchPad enable, disable, or launch events based on "conditional triggers" such as an application running or not running, a DDE change, a file change, a file does or does not exist, or a window is active or inactive. Launchpad's options include: alarms, log actions to disk, run hidden, prompt before execution, execute if past due, reschedule if past due, delete after execution, disable after execution, and more. With its ability to save schedule files, LaunchPad can be used on the same machine by multiple people with different requirements. You can also schedule downloads by entering URLs. The program's icon appears in the System Tray.
