<p>One or more LaunchBox applets can be started to organize shortcuts to your favorite applications or documents. You decide if each is shown on all or just the current workspace. They can also serve to quickly open a document in a specific application. For example, you could drag&amp;drop a HTML file onto a text editor in a LaunchBox to open it in the editor instead of its preferred application, the browser.</p>
