Startplusplus description
An enhancement for the Start Menu in Windows Vista and a Run box command extender

What is Start++?

Start++ is an enhancement for the Start Menu in Windows Vista. It also extends the Run box and the command-line with customizable commands. For example, typing "w Windows Vista" will take you to the Windows Vista page on Wikipedia!

Typing "sudo" followed by a command will run that command with elevated (admin) privileges. A very useful feature from the command-line as well!

Advanced functions can work with search results, powered by Windows Vista's integrated desktop search engine. For example, typing "play radiohead" will find all music that matches the query "radiohead", compile the results into a .M3U file, and launch it in your favorite media player (actually, it only uses Windows Media Player for the moment, but that will change soon).

It also allows users to export and share their favorite commands.

Some commands will trigger custom UI in the Start Menu in response to your commands.



What's New in This Release:

· Better responsiveness to queries for Start Gadgets
· Fewer intermediate Gadget updates while you're typing, no longer a chance of "lost characters"
· Better keyboard and mouse interaction with Start Gadgets
· Fixed the default Dictionary gadget to have an OnSubmit handler as it was meant to
· Fixed the calculator gadget (and problems with any gadgets that use OnSubmit but have SubmitNewWindow set to false)
· Small UI clean-up for gadget rendering
· Fixed tab ordering for most of the configuration UI
· Fixed focus of UAC prompts when using commands like "sudo" from the start menu if the Secure Desktop switch is disabled... [ read full changelog ]
