3launch

Launch your favorite programs with only 3 keystrokes! (hence the name)

3launch is an ultra-fast customizable program launcher.

For example (It's fully configurable!):

  • Win+V+S = Visual Studio
  • Win+P+S = Photoshop
  • Win+S+O = Open StackOverflow.com

Just press Win, then another 2 keystrokes, and the program is launched.
