General Discussion

Just a heads-up to everyone. I'm starting the localization project on Monday and if you're multilingual... we'll need your help. The apps themselves are available in multiple languages, but the launchers have been English-only up until this point. You don't normally see messages from the launchers, unless there's a problem (eg: Another instance of Firefox is running, please close...)

The way it will work is I'll be posting a series of strings (sentence or two each) that we'll need translated. Replies will be made with those strings translated into each language and we'll go from there.

I've just found something interesting.
A quick launcher less than 40k, portable and green of course.
It's called "floater".

The zip is 32k, and the main program is 40k only.
Unzip, put shortcuts in the items folder, and run.
Then a quick launcher with shortcuts in the items folder will appear at the left-bottom of your screen.
Except launching, you can only click the left border of it to minimize it.
Not even move it, too bad. >_

Is there any way I can reference windir in pstart? I have a lot of apps added, such as notepad, etc) but some computers use c:\winnt and some use c:\windows. (I would like to keep the icons)

Has anybody here checked out Meebo? It is a web-based instant messaging client that supports AIM, MSN, Yahoo!, and Jabber/GTalk. It seems to work fairly well.

Are there any filters or settings that I can use so these programs only show the registry areas that should be considered for portability. i.e. are there any areas of the registry that can be safely written to and a program still be portable. When I run either Regmon or Regshot I get a bunch of registry changes but not all of them seem to be related to the program I am testing. Does anybody have any tips or suggestions to narrow down the list. Thanks

This soft is much like DeepFreeze, is what we need to make portable.
Maybe someone can make it portable.
Its free.

I stumbled upon this site today and thought I might share it.

I had to use bablefish to understand what was going on (the site is in italian) but there are some nicely packaged apps. I downloaded their portable version or ClamWin, it seems to work good and is trimmed down to ~18.2mb. Check it out.

As you all knows after connecting USB hardware, new icon on the tray appears where you can disconnect (safely) your USB hardware, so you will not loose any data.
But there are few problems with it:
- maaaany clicks
- even more clicks if the drive isn't prepared to be disconnected ...

So I would like to ask, if anyone knows a script or something (or maybe there is a special executalbe with some extra parameters) that after running it will try to disconnect device over and over again until it's finished.

Now ... i'm using this suite of Apps it's so great but the big two qustions are :

Why Linux users cann't use this nice suite ?

i'm Linux user i've poor experience about programming so i cann't found the right path to join with development team for this wonderful suit ,so how i can join to Linux development team to make this suit work on Linx too?
