Portable Bible Software

Submitted by tedreed66 on May 3, 2008 - 2:28pm

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!

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 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 Smile

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)

I noticed that NUV and KompoZer are repeated once in development, and once in internet. Also, even if the programs are based off each other, I think they should be listed seperatly. Also, why do we link to XAMPP if it isn't from PortableApps? Actually, we only provide a LAUNCHER!!! Yes, a launcher.

Menu Integration: XAMPP isn't in PortableApps.com Format, but it easily integrates with the PortableApps.com Suite by using the XAMPP Launcher 1.3 and installing XAMPP in the root directory of your portable device (as recommended).
