No I am not requesting this and I did search. For those of you that don't know what stickies is read about it at http://www.zhornsoftware.co.uk. I use stickies on a daily basis off of my flash drive. However I have noticed a through a couple of programs, like P.A.M. and Pstart, stickies does not (for lack of a better way of saying) read into it's directory. If I launch it manually it works great. Finds the .ini file and continues to read and write from its directory. But when I use P.A.M and other to run it, it doesn't pick up those files. Does anyone know of a way to fix this?
A question to Ryan McCue:
I here that you're making a launcher for stickies, will that fix the problem? If not do you know of a way to fix it?
A question to John T Haller:
Is there a simple edit to the menu that can fix this, or (heaven forbid) is this a bug in your menu?

P.S. When I used Smtih Tech's shortcut creater for u3 (I no longer use u3) it worked perfectly.
EDIT: Okay I tried xrxca's menu and stickies runs fine from it. Will that bug be fixed for the next release John??

Which version of PAM are you using? The latest Beta or the one included with the suites?

As all of ya should know Microsoft is the Evil Empire, and Windows (a.k.a. Winblows or Windoze) is their greatest general, so please make a difference and install Linux or Free BSD on yer Windows comp.

Since I believe his mod is based off of the latest PAM Beta any PAM version not the second Beta (which fixed the working directory bug) is afflicted with the bug.

I use stikies on a regular daily basis too, with PStart and CMD to autoclose when exit Pstart, and never... but never had this problem...
Your problem is the stickies.ini file... read from here: http://www.portablefreeware.com/?q=stickies&m=Search
"Download the installer and install to the default folder. Then copy all files (except instlog.lsl) to a folder of your choice. Finally, uninstall the program. Before you run the program, create an empty file called stickies.ini in the application folder (otherwise the INI file will be written to the user profile folder). Launch the program by double-clicking on stickies.exe"

I have no signature again...
If a packet hits a pocket on a socket on a port,
and the bus is interrupted as a very last resort,
and the address of the memory makes your floppy disk abort,
then the socket packet pocket has an error to report
As I said above it works fine except when running through PAM. When I open it through PAM it doesn't pick-up the stickies.ini. Everything is installed fine.

Edit:
By the way, do you have a link for CMD?

Portable Apps Menu Mod R21B by xrxca . It starts the programs from within the app's directories and not from PAM's. This should solve your problem. Another solution could be to create your own portable launcher for stickies with NSIS [try this].

The NSIS stuff is a little over my head right now. I'll wait for Ryan's

If I ever get the launcher finished, it will fix it
And the bug is known. John fixed it in Beta 2 and broke it again in Beta 3.

So all that Airbus-delay trouble over here in Europe is because of YOU!

When do you think you will have the stickies launcher finished. I searched and you've been talking about it for a long time.

Sometime between now and 2038 (when Unix timestamps stop working)
