I've made a slight adjustment that also inserts the current date and time, along with the text to append. The instructions are <a href="http://sagehacks.blogspot.com/2009/01/howto-make-launchy-your-slave.html" rel="nofollow">here</a>. Nice hack, Ben!

So, as a result all text is added to the same line in the file. I added the following line to the batch script to solve that problem. echo OFF>>c:\scratch.txt I don’t know if anyone has this problem, but a new line is not added to the end of the text.

At sourceforge I could download version 1.25. I closed launchy (pop up launchy, then Alt+F4), then I installed at the same directory as I had installed the first time. The problem was solved, and my list of directories, extensions etc was kept. Sweet. @Doug: Had same problem as you had, and it turned out I was using 1.0.0 version of launchy.
