I've always enjoyed mods and the snapshots, but it was getting ridiculous for me to swap ".minecrafts" around all the time, so that is why I've created THIS:

It's a system that makes use of a batch file menu that dynamicly changes itself to match the number of directories avalible. (8 max)
To set it up:
*FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS TO THE LETTER*
Get Minecraft.
Create a folder on your desktop named "Minecrafts" (minus the quotes)
Place a copy of "Minecraft.exe" into said folder
Make a text document with notepad. NOT WORD
Copy and paste the code into your document
Rename the document from "(insert name here).txt" to "(insert name here).bat"
Put that in the "Minecrafts" folder as well
Inside "Minecrafts", add the directories. (folders named "1", "2", "3" etc. 8 max)
(optional) copy your ".minecraft" folder into "1"
(optional) create a shortcut of the batch file onto your desktop
PROFIT!
Works with all Windows versions.(maybe Linux, I don't use it) If you like it, spread the word! And keep this alive for others.
If anyone can come up with improvements, please post them below.
