Non-portable apps installation (ideas)

Submitted by tcuzela on July 31, 2007 - 7:55pm

Hello all. It seems to me that we might be able (eventually) to make portable apps our selfs. I wish I could code and implement ANY of these ideas myself, but I did want to share them.

Reading different threads it came to me... why not use a program that monitors the installation of normal applications as to recreate its environment when launched? I've seen these apps (in some form) for years.

CMD Portable and PuttyPortable

Submitted by pwebguy on July 31, 2007 - 12:42pm

Hello, all

I am currently using putty portable via .bat files to access my servers. I would like to configure these .bat files to utilize command prompt portable instead, and be able to store these .bat files in another folder (such as the PAM docs folder).

For instance, currently in the putty portable folder I have a .bat file to access a server as follows:

start PuTTYPortable -P 22 -ssh 111.111.11.111 -l myuser -pw mypassword

MPlayer portable questions.

Submitted by Airwolf on July 31, 2007 - 11:18am

Hi, I'd like to switch to the MPlayer portable version, however I have a few questions.

1) It's possible to change skins in the portable version?
2) I tried to watch a DVD (Justice League Season 1), however it does not play the menu, but it starts the version of all the chapters. Is this normal behaviour of the MPlayer or of the MPlayer Portable?

Thanx in advance.

MS Exchange Client: Novell Evolution for PortableApps?

Submitted by jivago on July 30, 2007 - 1:07pm

It would be great to have an Exchange client on a USB. Can anyone tell me how to install Evolution? As far as I know it uses WebDav to connect to the Exchange server.

Thunderbird will only work with POP or IMAP, but is otherwise tremendous.

Thanks,

JivaGo

Note to M$ Haters and the Linux Blinded: I've already searched for Exchange in the forums and have duly noted your fresh and original commentary. Thank you but repeats and variations on those themes have all the taste already chewed out of them.

XAMPP - PORTABLE + PHP DOCUMENTOR

Submitted by fkrahe on July 27, 2007 - 7:33pm

I'm glad using my new xampp portable, with the XAMPP-launcher. But I've been triyng to install PhpDocumentor to it, without success..

I've even tried to instal PhpDocumentor to my desktop xampp, only to copy the files. But had no success either...

The way I tried is:
>cd c:\xampp\php
c:\xampp\php>pear install PhpDocumentor

The answer is:
Notice: unserialize(): Error at offset 53 of 351 bytes in Config.php on line 100
3
Error: The default config file is not a valid config file or is corrupted.
