History
The initial release of the launcher was when Minecraft Alpha was first released. This launcher could choose not only the current version but also Infdev.
In order to manually install mods with the current launcher (this goes for Forge mods as well, when Forge did not have an installer, and Optifine) you have to rename the version you are modding, e.g. From 1.9 to 1.9mods, including the folder, jar, json, and the 'id' inside the json - as well as remove the 'downloads' section from the end of the json file; otherwise, the steps should be the same.
