CmdLauncher

Aimed at helping people use command line tools in a GUI way.

This project is aimed at helping people launch a command in a graphical way. Command line tools are powerful, but some people, especially those who are not powerful users, tend to be unwilling to use command line tools. CmdLauncher provides a simple way for developers to make their console programs launch by selecting one from the list, or choosing a file, or something else which could be done easily by people who are not experts. What the command line program developers need to do is to write a simple yaml format file containing information of their command line programs, which will be read by CmdLauncher.
