LaunchBuilder creates executables that can launch
other executables with their command-line arguments. While creating the
executable with LaunchBuilder, you can specify the command-line arguments that
should be passed to the executable that should be launched. When the compiled
executable is executed, it passes these arguments to the executable.
Besides launching executables, LaunchBuilder can
create executables that perform a host of other functions. See Remarks for more details.
