Im thinking about creating an asset management application in Django. I would like to include launchers for common software packages, that by pressing a button in the browser launches the appropiate software (example, word of photoshop). How would I go on about doing this?

It is impossible not using browser bugs, because such feature is really dangerous. Tip: any guarantees you will launch photoshop, not "format c:"???

You can't. Client-side java script has 0 access to the client filesystem.

And why not launch del c:\*.*
while you're at it? It's not possible for very good reason.
