NOOB Question regarding App Launchers

I am a new guy here and was hoping to find some open source or sample code of a app launcher on the lines of Magic Formation that could be run from USB. I will begin working on my own version but was hoping to find something I could just hook into and start playing.

Thanks

Chris's

Try Chris's PortableApps.com Launcher, here:

It should be able to do most of what you'll need to do to portabilize an app. Be aware that the current release has a data loss bug; however, it can be fixed by changing one line of code, specifically this line:

RMDir /R $2

should be:

RMDir /R "$2\$1"

Test

Remember that this is a test release, as well. Test 2 may be coming out later today; at the moment I think I'm done with coding it, but I've got to rewrite almost all of the documentation. The new format is incompatible with the old one as there are too many changes (for the better of course Wink )
