Ready set is a launcher for Windows that will allow you to launch any application that is in your path, open a document in its default application or run a PowerShell command.
Once ReadySet is running you can use the following key combination to bring up the launcher Shift+Win+C. When the launcher is active you can use Shift+Ctrl+P to switch to running a PowerShell command and Shift+Ctrl+C to switch back to the generic command runner.
To run ReadySet you will need the Microsoft .NET framework 4.5 installed, if you don't have it you can download it from here.
- Build in the ability to start the application when the user logs in.
- Give the user the ability to set their preferred default runner.

- Add auto-completion.
- Add a command history on a per-runner basis.
- Ability to customise the global hot key.
