# SteamPlay-Custom
When selecting this tool, the *Steam Client* will launch a different program depending on the AppID.
## Configuration
You can define the program it launches via the **~/.config/steamcustomrc** file. An example is provided in the **example/** directory.
The config syntax is as follows:
`appid:application with parameters`
In the case of Unreal:
`13250:unreal`
Each line contains its an appid and a launch command, separated by a `:` symbol.
Only the first instance of an AppID is recognized.
You can supply as many parameters as you like.
If you'd like to enable the *Steam Client* to append its launch parameters to your target as well, append this:
`appid:application with parameters`**`:parms`**
## Finding out AppIDs
Launch any application in Steam with this tool and you'll get a notification on your desktop. It displays the AppID it is trying to launch.
## History
I wrote a handful of compatibility tools that essentially did the same thing: Use the native version of a program or game.
This basically just streamlines all my previous tools into one.
