Windows shortcut for eXtreme Gammon

In Response To: Windows shortcut for eXtreme Gammon (eXtreme Gammon)

I'm not sure I explained myself well. I'm not suggestion assigning XG to a key combination, but taking advantage of Windows searching for programs in the start menu.

As part of the XG install, there is a shortcut in my start menu named 'eXtreme Gammon' and when I type winkey + e + x, my start menu shows Excel at the top and eXtreme Gammon second. If I type winkey + e + x + t, eXtreme Gammon shows on top (and can be launched with the enter key).

I created a second start menu shortcut called 'XG eXtreme Gammon' and can quickly launch XG by winkey + x + enter. This has fewer keystrokes and better matches my mental model of the program as XG and not eXtreme...
