Ryan,

As you probably know, there are new versions of RSSOwl, your portable version does not work on Vista so I'm looking how to update.

Then my question is, can I update it just replacing the App in the App folder? and/or Are you planing to release a new version?

Thanks in advance.

I am using a 250gig external to run Ubuntu 8.04, I set aside 10 gigs for my Ubuntu ext3 partition, 1 gig for the swap and the rest is ntfs for transferring between windows and Ubuntu. I use portable applications from here and I use a lot of the same application in windows and on Linux. I didn't want to use wine to run my applications since I have more stable version designed for Ubuntu. So i was wondering if the application roots (where they store their settings and data) could be changed to the same one?

I know Ryan did this, and that's why I'm posting this. I've started doing more ad-type projects in SS, and my copy of M$ Publisher is broken, so I started looking for an open source version I can portableize. I found Scribus, but Ryan already did this, but that prerelease was a long time ago. I'm wondering about the status of it. (We definitely need to get the pre-releases out.)

I have successfully used the FREE Berean Bible software on my thumb drives on several different computers with OS's ranging from WIN ME to WIN VISTA. The site is offering a new version that includes a "max setup" of ASV, BBE, ESV, NKJV, KJV, and WEB (about 7.5 mb) translations of the Holy Bible! Individual translations can be downloaded and installed too.
It is a no frills basic software, with word search, and i love it!

Having been around the forums a time or two, I noticed where a poster was running

I know that there are a few in the list but I am unable to install each one separately and use RegShot to check if they are portable. Does anyone know if these are portable? They are all Open Source Freeware games. I have provided links to their respective page on Wikipedia. You can find a link to the homepage of each program on the Wiki page.

Hey everyone

Hey Guys

I was wondering how is it that you request permission from a freeware developer to have his app portablised. I just sent a message to rocket division asking if StarBurn could be portabalised and afterwards realized I was an idiot because there is probably a forml process one must adhere to. Thats why I'm writing this to ask if anyone can tell me what are the steps.

Many thanks

Enjoy,

when i try to access a file at school it will not allow me to download. is there anyway that someone can add the installers in like a non-exe format

here, they have blocked
EXE AND ZIP download's

is there anyway we can support an external file extention? like .rar or a custom file extention like .paf! (no .exe extention)
