Dear Computerfreaker,
Yes, you can do that. I'm glad to have a PortableApps version of Listary.
Feel free to build your own package based on Listary Portable (please download the latest version here, I've just made some changes).
Thanks for the work! You can bundle Listary with your PAF build at any time.
Thanks, Bopsoft!

I was looking at this for possible release but it doesn't seem to work for me on Win7 x64 Ultimate. I can type but nothing happens. Win+W doesn't do anything either. Only if I select a drive from the left in Explorer and then hit Win+W does it show up. But then nothing can be typed in it either by just typing or attempting to set focus.
Sometimes, the impossible can become possible, if you're awesome!
Were you able to determine if the problem was with Listary or Listary Portable? I can get in touch with the Listary author if necessary, but I need to be sure the problem is with Listary itself first.
Also, can anyone confirm this? I don't have a Win 7 system (or any 64-bit system) to test on, but Listary Portable works on my XP SP3 system.
EDIT: I think I just figured out what the issue is - Listary's "official" portable version contains 32-bit and 64-bit versions, but I only packaged the 32-bit version. I'll try including the 64-bit version as well (via PAL 2.1) with the next DT and see if that fixes your issue.
EDIT 2: Here's the package containing both the 32-bit and 64-bit versions of Listary. Does that work correctly? (I'll update the original post with the new download link if it does)

That was it. You need the x64 version for it to properly work with Explorer on x64 Windows. It seems to work just fine for me now. Think this is otherwise good to go? I can double check it on my Windows XP 32-bit so we get another 32-bit confirmation as well.

I'd appreciate a test on your XP system, just to be safe, but I think this is ready to go.
