A question about stickies

Submitted by Jacob Mastel on July 18, 2007 - 12:48pm

No I am not requesting this and I did search. For those of you that don't know what stickies is read about it at http://www.zhornsoftware.co.uk. I use stickies on a daily basis off of my flash drive. However I have noticed a through a couple of programs, like P.A.M. and Pstart, stickies does not (for lack of a better way of saying) read into it's directory. If I launch it manually it works great. Finds the .ini file and continues to read and write from its directory. But when I use P.A.M and other to run it, it doesn't pick up those files. Does anyone know of a way to fix this?

New Forum

Okay John, First of all we all love theses forums and all of your dedicated work to this sight. I have noticed lately that there are many, many different take-offs of your menu, and huge amounts of themes. The only problem is that they are scattered over the Off Topic, General Discussion, and Beta Testing Forums. I don't mean to sound winy, but it would be nice if there was a forum specifically for theses things. It would definitely reduce the number of people asking specifically for menus that do this and/or that.

Enabling secure chat in Portable GAIM

Submitted by webfork on July 18, 2007 - 3:39am

Security feature: you can enable "Off The Record" encryption used by Adium and many other chat tools. The whole process takes less than 10 mins.

1. Go to the OTR Website www.cypherpunks.ca/otr/

2. Scroll down the page and download "installer for the plugin for gaim 2 beta 5."

3. Use Universal Extractor (http://portablefreeware.com/?id=641) to open the downloaded executable without going through the install process.

4. From the extracted folder, delete "[NSIS].nsi" and "$PLUGINSDIR" and move all other files to your GAIM install directory under \App\Gaim\plugins.

Customization

How about customization in new PortableAppsSuite version (if you planing to produce any new version Smile )? I'm talking about custom order of apps in launcher window by user or/and group splitting as on your Applications page.

(Hope, someone understand my explanation. Sad I need more lessons of English.)
