Hi,

is it possible to use a portable Application as default-Application inside another portable application?

e.g.
- sumatraPDF as (of course external) pdf-viewer used in portable Firefox
- portable Firefox as the Browser that opens urls from portable Thunderbird
- Notepad++ Portable as the default editor used in winscp-portable
- winmerge in rapidsvn portable

Only to give some use cases. Is there already a way, to do this complete or partly? If not, is anyone else interested in such things, and would it be worth some effort?

Ok i was wondering if i could install and make a start menu icon for portable applications that are not on this site and how i would go about doing that i have tried once but was not able to get it to work properly any help would be greatly appreciated
Thanks
Shawn

What does everyone think?

I was trying to troubleshoot a plugin problem with FF Portable the other day, and posted on a forum on what I should check (grey bar with red up arrow, menus blank etc). The main respondent just said "why bother doing anything? It's a portable app, just copy out your bookmarks.html, delete the damn thing and reinstall it!" Fair call, and it's what I ended up doing, even though I then had to go through and re-enter all my passwords etc.

I'm not sure but I think we may need to delete the link in this node/post

till we have more information.

If you don't end your coding, it will affect every post and piece of text on the page. For example, here is boldface. Now, everything else after this is now bold. This will also be bad if you forget to add the / to the ending code.

I must apologize for the last of updates the past few weeks. I wanted to do a very brief one tonight before I begin a stint on the road tomorrow and return next Thursday morning.
