Update March 3, 2011: The project has been migrated to SourceForge, as project L4D Launcher. Binaries can be downloaded from there, but the source code is also freely available through SVN.
I realized that there are some bugs in the new release. For one, it is unclear when joining a server which host is selected. Another problem is related to Survival mode: if an invalid map is selected, L4D will hang.
I'm also going to look into locating custom maps, though I'm doubtful I can support this completely.

Hello!
It's a very nice prog! Better then the other stuff you can find. But is it possible to join as a special char (e.g. Bill or so)? A specify command line argument? THX!

I was thinking the same thing -- and being able to change your name. I'll take a look next week when I have some more time.

I'm afraid I don't have the opportunity to work on this very soon, so I'll put the source code (Visual Basic .NET) up this weekend for those eager to play with it. Feel free to send it back to me with your changes so I can republish it here.

This is a heads-up to those of you following this post. I've just released L4D Launcher version 1.2. Read more about it here.
