Portable App Development

For the Portable App I'm making, I need to write a registry key that has the directory of the app. So, I tried using FileWrite to change the .reg file before its added; however, nothing seems to be happening. To test it, I made a file in \Data\Settings called test.txt with D:\CivilizationIIIPortable as what's in it. I then set the last drive to D. In my launcher, I have:

[FileWrite3]
type=Replace
File=%PAL:DataDrive%\Settings\test.txt
find=%PAL:LastDrive%
replace:%PAL:Drive%

Hi,

Hi guys,

I was looking for a portable RDP connection manager, but this seems difficult to get...

I use RDCman (Microsoft free tool) but would like to go portable with this.
Wonder if anyone knows if this tool can be made portable (I am not sure how it works license wise).

Or if you are aware of any other apps that does the job...

I read about remote desktop connection manager from Devolution. If you download the .zip binary files, you are able to run portable with a file path change... but the binary pack is only the enterprise version.. So you need license..

So I've been trying to make a portable copy of CivilizationIII so I can run it off of the network drive at school. I've already figured out what registry keys it needs to run, but I'm ignoring them for now anyways. Right now, the game is just staying in the same directory, not changing any keys.

Dear all,

May we have a portable gImageReader for Hindi or any other language. Presently we are unable to OCR other languages.

Hallo,
i´ve read a lot of the documentation, ini-files etc. but couldnt find anything regarding the following question.

Is there a way to use an alternative data dir (e.g. via commandline option) after the start of an portable app?

Hello!

I tried to make the current Inkscape development version portable which worked pretty good except of one thing: It seems that Inkscape is creating a folder in Temporary Internet Files for some icons (e.g. Temporary Internet Files\inkscape\icons\16x16\bitmap-trace.png).
Does someone of you have an Idea if there is a possibility to handle this folder?

Regards,
Leon

Hey everyone. In my quest to work on my own app, I did some changes to the Launcher that I'd like to share. Head over to the SourceForge folder I put my changes in. The readme file there explains the changes I made and what files they affect. I hope this gets the launcher one step closer to being ready for when the OpenJDK becomes official. Thanks again gluxon for the work in packaging the OpenJDK.

In my version of MiKTeX Portable I am running into a problem that I thought I had fixed already. When the program is run it opens the MiKTeX tray icon which is not actually the process that is launched originally. Instead, it leaves a process running called "miktex-taskbar-icon.tmp". Until recently, I had no problems with it, so I assumed it was correctly handling this process. On the most recent Dev Test, I put in some configuration file moving which a user pointed out to me isn't working properly.
