Launchpad 2.0 is a fairly minor release for most users, but under the hood, it has been almost entirely rewritten from the ground up.

The new version uses AutoHotKey v2-alpha. But don't worry! If you're an end-user of Launchpad, you won't have to even think about this. Launchpad will always include and manage its own version of AutoHotKey that is compatible with its code.

If you are using the .ahk version of Launchpad directly, you need to run it with a compatible version of AHK v2-alpha. There is a new Launchpad.bat file in the main directory which will use an "AHK_2" environment variable if it exists as the AHK 2 executable. If the environment variable does not exist, the .ahk file will be launched directly as normal.

There are big changes coming that are not quite ready yet, including a Launcher Editor and a Launcher Manager.
