launch 1.1

Launch Does Everything Open (apple's Command-line Launching Program) Does, And:

opens URLs, directly or in your preferred helper application
lets you specify applications by their four-character creator (e.g. 'ToyS') or Java-style bundle ID (e.g. com.apple.scripteditor), both of which allow you to move or rename an application without changing references to it
asks applications to print documents, something the OS X Finder doesn't let you do any more
launches applications in the background
launches Carbon applications in Classic
reports errors intelligibly
shows information about any item on disk, including its file type, creator, data and resource fork sizes, dates and bundle ID (where applicable).
