If you look at the full portable programs that are designed and released here they are usualy free and open source. We do make launchers for programs that are paid for, BUT DO NOT include the program. Such as my Portable Photshop 7 launcher. I created this for use with YOUR purchased copy of photoshop. It uses YOUR license information from YOUR installed copy of Photshop. It DOES NOT change the program in any way and DOES NOT interfere with the program operation. It just allows you to take it with you.
When we develop, we check the License agreements for the programs to make sure that we are following them exactly. Such as Protable GMAIL Notifier. the launcher was written, but per Google's License, the actual program IS NOT distibuted with the Launcher, you have to get it yorself.
So no ILLEGAL activities are not done here.

Dev-C++ is free and open sourced and btw already portable - you just need to start it with a simple comandline switch. So please stop whining about illegal modifications, thanks.

P.S. clmp13, you seem to have some strange ideas about legallity and (development) community
Here are some threads with some dubious posting from you: "send me email to get the miniapp (=launcher?)" "it is to complicated to describe, send me email"
If you want to share knowledge then describe your modifications or present your (miniapps) source code but I think nearly nobody would use an exe-file he got from an unknown person per email.
Go to C:\Program Files and select any program you whant. copy that folder to your desktop NOTE: This doese not alwayes work and if you mess up............ So, Go into the folder look for the executabel file. put it on your desktop. now make the contains but NOT the folder itself hidden. now put the executable file in and run it. i shold work .
This is for ONLY YOUR SELF DO OT MAKE LAUNCHERS FOR ANYONE ELSE. Go to start and click run. type notepad.exe. type C:\Documents and Settings\Your User name\Desktop\ The name of the exe.exe save it to the folder and name it The mini-app.bat

It is illigel to make portable apps out of prgrams that cost money unless they allow you to or they no longer support it.
