Creating new "Run"/Program Aliases

I was just curious if it is possible to create new "Run" alises IE: Start, Run, "notepad" "cmd" "winword".

I've seen a few artificial run programs that allow you to make your own, but having the functionality with the normal would be nice.

Just curious if there is a program to do it, or would it just be too much a pain in the ass and involve a lot of regedit?

Want to try MCL, it can do command line and macro.
http://www.mlin.net/MCL.shtml this is freeware. And no installing needed, so i archived my folder, and included another freeware program, CharProbe (for finding keyboard codes). this should deminstrate the way to use macros to have new run alises, and remove dependency on windows Run.

p.s. another freeware program you should need is a Pointer position, for use in the macros (not in the rapidshare link)
