What apps do you run via Lapwing? I'd love to see a comprehensive list of applications that are known to work via Lapwing.

no seriously!
EDIT: Now I have got something to eat I'll expand on that.
Basically in its current form Lapwing is really a proof of concept program. Because of that there is no real list of what does and doesn't work. However I am now working with a guy from portablefreeware to hopefully completely update Lapwing and give it all of the features that you guys want. Expect to see it in a couple of months. Thats all I'm going to say for now.

if Steve was an excellent programmer (not saying you aren't ;)), it would work with all of them.
However, as Steve said, it's only proof of concept at the moment.

So any news on Lapwing?
I've been trying RC2 - and Dreamweaver 8, and Paint Shop Pro 8, don't even start properly.
I think this is the most eagerly awaited piece of software !!!
has been busy with exams and school work and has not had much time.
That said, he is still working on it. It's not dead.

So in the meantime, has anyone been able to convert Dreamweaver 8 to portable version? Or for that matter any Macromedia apps? How about any of the Pain Shop Pro series?
What is lapwing???
I can't find any documentation on the liberta site!
Go into as much detail as you wish - I will understand.
If anyone cares to explain what Wrap and Puss are please do.
Thank you in advance!
it is in development and we are trying to keep the buzz down until release.
Lapwing is a program to make apps portable by redirecting their calls to the registry to an INI file. It will eventually redirect file calls as well.
Wrap is a depreciated module which is similar (and based off) Reg Rapper. You use it with an app and it deletes the registry settings and saves it on to your USB after running.
PUSS means Portable Utility and Security Suite. It includes Secure which is encryption, Sync to synchronise your Portable settings with your Local settings and Backup to backup your files.
