I'm doing a pre-release for this release of Notepad++ Portable because there was a major version change and because I've added multilingual support to it (in addition to an updated launcher with better INI handling and the latest installer).

Mozilla Firefox, Portable Edition 3.0.1 Pre-Release 1 (Quick Test, Hopefully)

I'm taking the unusual step of doing a pre-release for this new Firefox release. This is primarily because I've been so under the weather this week so I wasn't able to get the test out with BUILD1 of 3.0.1 on Sunday/Monday. I'm still far from 100% so having some folks test before release would be much appreciated. Especially in light of the new features.

InkscapePortable - First try at NSIS

Submitted by krTsukasa on July 15, 2008 - 4:39pm

Ok, before anyone says this, I know that InkscapePortable is already in delopment.

A few days ago, I decided to try my hand at learning some NSIS. When I was looking through my PortableApps folder, I discovered that the current version of InkscapePortable is written in au3, and decided that it would be the perfect candidate (that and the fact that, being a Linux program originally, it doesn't use the registry).

Well, here's what I got:

InkscapePortable.exe (Self-Extracting 7-Zip)
