I'm wondering what programming environments/compilers/etc. are available. I have a 1gb usb flash drive. Right now I have dev-c++. I would prefer complete portability, but would do with something that writes some stuff to the registry and/or hard drive. I looked into a portable python but only found one that costs money so that was out of the question. Any portable java? delphi? Any at all.
Thanks!

TCC is a pretty decent c compiler that unzips to a folder and can therefore be considered portable. I had to move the executable up one level to get it to work, but it's a pretty powerful little sucker. Only pain is having to type in the full path for files.

I use Turbo Pascal v7. It works from any where including your Hard driveand USB device!

You need to get all the required dlls and what not, but it's worth it. If you want I can upload a fully ready-to-go version somewhere for you. To update your version to the latest nightly build afterwards, you just download it and extract to your old one.
Please upload a package of this!
I would really need it.
If Visual Studio isn't installed on the computer I'm at, I have an interesting system working for .NET programming where I use PSPad to edit files, .NET Prebuild to generate project files and NAnt to perform builds. If I ever find the time (it has been increasingly busy lately), I'll look at what would be required to make SharpDevelop portable (with the exception of .NET 1.1/2.0 being installed).
I leave the 24MB .NET 1.1 install file on my USB drive for the computers that don't have .NET installed on them. Another option to look at is Mono, an open-source implementation of .NET .

I've managed to do that very task, two different ways.
The first was to simply change the default config directory from %APPDATA%\.ICSharpCode\SharpDevelop to "SharpDevelop\data" (on my drive, SharpDevelop.exe is in SharpDevelop\bin), and disable the ability to register file associations. But, that simply creates a plain "portable-only" sharpdevelop.
Then, I tried and (barely) succeeded in creating a "-portable" parameter. The modified code is *VERY* ugly, but it works.
I've gotta go right now, but I'll post a link to the pre-compiled binaries and the source tomorrow. Maybe we could figure out a way to implement more options, since they only provide a way for ONE parameter, and it just disables the logo on startup.
I really want to create my own simplistic .NET IDE that uses NAnt to do compilations. I just wish I had the time
