Request Apps

Got a suggestion for an app that should be portable? Post it here.

OCR

I know there was already some talking about it. But not very clearly
So I insist:
an OCR to use wherever you are would be useful for a lot of people

I know, GOCR is not the very best, but it seems to respond to the requirements of portable apps:
GOCR is an OCR (Optical Character Recognition) program, developed under the GNU Public License. It converts scanned images of text back to text files. Joerg Schulenburg started the program, and now leads a team of developers.

Free Undelete

A nice app that I would like to see is Free Undelete by OfficeRecovery.com.
http://www.officerecovery.com/freeundelete/

I think that with the fact that a lot of IT guys may use this program as well, this might be a good one to add.

I am willing to try and do what is necessary to try get this going, I just don't understand where to start or what to do.

Thanks

ConTEXT

ConTEXT is a small, fast and powerful freeware text editor, developed to serve as a secondary tool for software developers.

I think, that ConTEXT is very good app, and it's better than Notepad++, and i'll be really proud if i would see it's portable edition.

S3 Backup

Submitted by bflock on May 8, 2009 - 8:02pm

Application: S3 Backup or other S3 type access program

Opensource and Free

S3 Browser is available and is supposed to be Opensource and portable but I have trouble getting it to upload large files. Specifically I'm trying to upload my backup files created from PortableApps and it just seems to sit and sit forever on 2-3 percent.

I'm willing to try other suggestions too.

Thanks
Brian L.
