I wrote this so that everything I would need to play WoW on Molten was right there at my fingertips; an all-in-one sort of deal. I wrote this in my own free time; it took me around 3 days. I've seen other launchers that have been released and believe this to be by far and away the best.
Basically, the program parses Molten's index.html and modifies it to fit certain needs.
If there are any features you guys would like to see in some sort of future release feel free to PM me or leave a comment, I will read both.
