I've been debating creating launchers for each so you can have one icon for each, just like on a local install. Is there interest in this?

What about a PStart-like

What about a PStart-like launcher? You run it, and it asks you which app you want to run. (Unless it already does that already.)

You could add command-line switches for use in PStart, for those who don't want multiple launchers.

i.e.: PortableOpenOffice.exe -calc

Cheers!

PStart

Everybody using PStart could start single OO-apps. You only need to specify the commandline parameters (e.g. -calc in general properties) and maybe change the icon (-> advance properties).

This is sort of what I'm talking about.

Does it already accept those commandline parameters? That was my idea, but I didn't know if it does it.

It does

I built the launcher to pass them right through. Detailed here:

Sometimes, the impossible can become possible, if you're awesome!
