ALICE Launching Programs

<pattern>CALL FRANK</pattern>

<system>skype.exe</system>

</cateogory>

That should work. Usually you don't even need a path and you can hand 
over parameters inside the system tag.

It's funny that you want, what I'm trying to get rid off. Because 
depending on which bot you are running and who has what access to it, 
the system tag can be a security problem.

Kolya cheers back
