# mousetrap
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
mousetrap is a tiny library that answers a single question.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
On a Windows machine, was the process invoked by someone double clicking on
 | 
						|
the executable file while browsing in explorer?
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
### Motivation
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Windows developers unfamiliar with command line tools will often "double-click"
 | 
						|
the executable for a tool. Because most CLI tools print the help and then exit
 | 
						|
when invoked without arguments, this is often very frustrating for those users.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
mousetrap provides a way to detect these invocations so that you can provide
 | 
						|
more helpful behavior and instructions on how to run the CLI tool. To see what
 | 
						|
this looks like, both from an organizational and a technical perspective, see

### The interface
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The library exposes a single interface:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    func StartedByExplorer() (bool)
