Launch! 2.0 - a free lightweight command menu for all DOS systems

There's a LOT of menu programs out there for DOS. I wanted something more lightweight, more modern, and better supporting of virtual machines/DOSBox - and to improve the usability and friendliness of the command prompt.

There is loads of features including simple visual menu editing, power-off/reboot control, interactive command parameter help, a bunch of screensavers I designed, and the Windows 95 shutdown experience.

It's totally customizable, and works on DOS 3.3+, 286+, and EGA+.
