Updated Launch code

Added output to error stack, so terminal errors are displayed
Ficed c.Verbose, it was changed to an array which causes issues launching
Removed . notation from doing anything special. This was already replaced with the -p CLI option
Added documentaiton on adding the package name
Started watcher with force refresh.
