Rainmeter and Rainlendar

Wow, I haven't done this in a while.

Program: Rainmeter

License: Open Source/GPL

Description: Rainmeter is a desktop customisation tool similar to Samurize, but open source.

Other: settings are saved to the appdir in rainmeter.ini.

Would someone also be able to have a go at Rainlendar2? Although it is now closed source, legacy Rainlendar (same page as Rainmeter) has its source open and supports all the same command line parameters as Rainlendar2, e.g. -c

I've been using both portably for a while. I didn't realize they were open source though. I've been trying to get Rainmeter to use relative paths so I can make buttons that point to portable apps.

EDIT:

Rainmeter also doesn't handle reporting used\free space on removable media. If anyone wants to take a crack at changing that, I'd be very appreciative.

Ok, I figured out the relative path thing. We can make configs work from within a paf folder structure. They wouldn't work if used in a standard Rainmeter installation though.

The only way around it that I can see would be if we used hard paths, and had the launcher adjust every path in every .ini on each load. That might be a little slow.
