Hi, this is a very basic autohotkey script that I use to load up MQ2, EQBCS, and my 6 accounts. It creates a standard looking AHK icon in your taskbar, right click it & select start everquest.
It copies over my specified eqclient.ini files allowing each character to open up at the same place with the proper window size everytime.
I hope this helps some of you, and maybe someone can make it better (I barely know what I'm doing)
You'll need to change the directories to match your locations & eqclient.ini copies (nothing a ctrl+h can't change in a minute for you). There is a 10 second delay between each start, you can try lowering it or raising it if your MQ2 crashes your EQ on load (I use 40sec delays)

I like Innerspace as it adds hotkeys to toggle window swaps.
