Launchy 2.4.3 doesn't seem to use application setting at all.

It looks like launchy does not use the "application" setting at all, contrary to documentation. It seems to always be ignored, and in a cursory search I can't find anywhere in the source where the Launchy.application method is used.

I was trying this in the context of a data URI which I assume is an unsupported feature. But the documentation suggests I should be able to force this to the browser.

» launchy data:image/png;base64,omitted_data==
ERROR: No application found to handle 'data:image/png'
Try `launchy --help' for more information.

» launchy data:image/png;base64,omitted_data== --application Browser
ERROR: No application found to handle 'data:image/png'
Try `launchy --help' for more information.

That does appear to be the case. I think that was a goal early on when I pondered launchy doing more than only Browser. Since there is only one application, I think I'll change it so that it is --force-browser or something along those lines.
