Open Source Visual Basic .NET Launchers

This application requires the "TESSERACT" OCR engine to decode text in a captured screenshot. The text file can be analysed to look for specific trigger words which will run a defined application. TESSERACT OCR is available for Windows users here: https://digi.bib.uni-mannheim.de/tesseract/ Information on its use is generally available, this medium post provides an overview: https://medium.com/quantrium-tech/installing-and-using-tesseract-4-on-windows-10-4f7930313f82 During the testing I used version 5 of the software. The application provides an automated method of capturing a screenshot, the area for which can be defined. The screenshot can be captured at specific repeating intervals. All configuration is stored in a text file called "config.txt" By default the timed screenshot is disabled on start-up, loading the configuration file will enable it. The information in the text file created by TESSERACT is analysed for any words in the optional triggers.txt file
