I am pretty new to vox commando and I am only just getting into the good stuff but I was wondering how I would set up a way to launch applications by saying the shortcut name. I know it is an easy one but I appreciate any help
Hi FTGTapGod. This is beginner stuff. Basically you need to learn how to use the program! There is a lot of material in the wiki, the forum, and on our YouTube channel.

I know how to launch applications and browsers individually but I was wondering about using voice to choose an application instead of entering each application as a separate command. So it would be like Open or Launch X. How do I get vc to recognize what I say as X?
You need a payload xml in which is stored the path to the specific programm.
Here is a command group which you can edit to your needs (select the code then drag'n drop it on a free space in your VC command tree), save the attached launchprog.xml in the VC payload folder.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-16"?>
<!--VoxCommando 2.0.1.0-->
<commandGroup open="True" name="launch programms" enabled="True" prefix="" priority="0" requiredProcess="" description="">
<command id="276" name="launch programms" enabled="true" alwaysOn="False" confirm="False" requiredConfidence="0" loop="False" loopDelay="0" loopMax="0" description="">
<action>
<cmdType>Launch.RawParam</cmdType>
<params>
<param>{1}</param>
</params>
<cmdRepeat>1</cmdRepeat>
</action>
<phrase>start, open</phrase>
<payloadFromXML phraseOnly="False" use2partPhrase="False" phraseConnector="by" Phrase2wildcard="anyone" optional="False">payloads\launchprog.xml</payloadFromXML>
</command>
</commandGroup>
I'm gonna take what FTGTapGod asked about and replace the word program by websites.
can i open websites with their url in a payload xml or is there any method other than that one
