What does Application launcher stand for?
Nowadays many users need to do a set of different tasks periodically and want
to be informed about results. For example, database administrators wants to
backup their databases every night and in the morning get a notification if the
backup was compeleted successfully. Another group is programmer teams that want
to make their nightly builds of developed software and know about results.
Many of such tasks are solved by running on servers different command line
scripts that out their results to log files. But, everyday browsing of network
just to open and review log files on a server is not funny task, it is quite
boring.
To simplify this task there is such a program as Application Launcher. The
program is able to run a console script on a server, collect all output from
the script and send it to an e-mail recipient.
