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

UltraClipboard Portable

Submitted by octane on September 27, 2007 - 10:51pm

I am the author of UltraClipboard, and I have made a portable version, and I am wondering if you think it will be helpful at all in your "PortableApps.com" site.

It is not an opensource project, and only runs on windows, but on all versions.

If not, thats fine too.

I haven't published the portable version anywhere, but the regular versions can be found at: UltraClipboard.com.

Thanks!

Snag It like screen capture app

Submitted by veriatech on September 26, 2007 - 6:19pm

Does anyone here use Snag It from Tech Smith? It's an app I absolutely cannot live without. It would be nice if there were a Portable Apps version of this software. I use PA on my work laptop, which I am not allowed to install anything on (strict company policy) and PA works great for me in this environment!

Thanks for listening!

Solitaire

This may sound like a silly suggestion, because just about every Windows PC has solitaire on it, but what about a portable solitaire game.

I am thinking about attempting make Big Solitaires 3D portable.

Name: Big Solitaires 3D (40+ Solitaire Games in 3D)
License: GPL
Website: http://sourceforge.net/projects/big3dsol
Registry: None that I can see.
Size: 4Mb
Dependencies: OpenGL, Win32 (MS Windows), GTK+, wxWidgets

I am pretty sure it either has an Open GL renderer or requires Open GL. Would that make it non portable?

Open Yahtzee

I was on sourceforge, and I came across an open source version of Yahtzee that looked interesting.

it's written in c++

From what I can see on their web site (and on sourceforge) , it looks like there was a portable edition made up for one of the older versions of Open Yahtzee, so it should be fairly portable as it is. But I think it would be nice to see a paf version of this too.
