This is mainly a bug fix release over Prerelease 1, so here's what you need to know.

  • The way the mirror works was completely overhauled, should be faster and more efficient.
  • The exclusions have been changed slightly, you need to put the leading dot in before file extensions
  • You cannot add a blank exclusion, keeps it nice and tidy!
  • Updated the manual
  • I think that there was something else but I can't remeber at the moment

Convey Portable .98b Release

Convey Portable v0.98b Portable Send To Manager

I created this little app to run when I insert my USB Drive. It basically takes a subfolder of application shortcuts on your portable drive and adds them to the current computer's Send To folder. For instance, if you like opening pdf files with Portable Sumatra instead of the Acrobat that is installed on the computer you're plugged into, you can just right-click the pdf file and choose Send To > Sumatra PDF Portable.

Well people here it is! The much anticipated Toucan 1.0 Prerelease 1 is now available to download here. A quick summary of the features available is here.

Also please note that at this time it is not hosted by PortableApps.com so all give your thanks to Ryan for hosting it. Finally you cannot in place upgrade this over PUSS as there have been a number of changes to the structure and naming and files that makes it incompatible.

Slax Linux Portable

Submitted by Paste2.0 on May 15, 2007 - 12:06am

This is an idea off the internet that i tweaked a bit,
it will also work with any Live Linux Distribution
and, it saves your settings to it's internal memory, unlike
Linux live CD's that you boot directly.
Tell me what you think of the idea.

Notepad++ Portable

I have created a Notepad++ launcher.

OK, I know Notepad++ itself is portable, but I have some good reasons to make a launcher.

1. It makes it in the PAF format.
2. It keeps it from saving the history.

Edit: Updated to version 4.1.2

Edit2: Could a mod lock this topic please, now that I have started a new topic.
