I'm trying to configure Everything 1.3.3.658 with Launchy 2.5.0
From command line
everything.exe -search foo
This works pretty much as expected.
What I would like to do is run this command from Launchy, which seems possible with its Runner plugin.
I've given the Runner command the name: search
Set the Program to C:/Program Files/Everything/Everything.exe
Set the arguments to: -search $$ (where $$ is supposed to mark the location for user input)
Then when I bring up Launchy with my keyboard shortcut and type
search (tab press:) foo
Everything opens, but I get the following error:
Unable to open the file list:
C:\Users\helga\AppData\Roaming\Everything\foo not found
I don't understand why it is looking for a file list instead of running the search and can't figure out where I've gone wrong.

Moving my comment to an answer. With Launchy 2.5.0, I am able to set up Everything as a runner task with the following settings
program:
C:/Program Files/Everything/Everything.exe(path to Everything.exe)arguments:
-s " $$
