Beta Testing

Merry Christmas Everybody!

I have just released a new version of Xenon. For those of you who are new to Xenon, it is a portable file manager with portable file associations so you can take open a file with say OpenOffice Portable on any computer.

Added Features

• Custom icon sets (toolbar)
• Custom home page
• Bookmarks

Feature enhancements: Sorting works better

I saw a number of topics on the App Request board requesting LimeWire portable, so here it is. Obviously, it won't run properly on a computer without the JRE installed, because LimeWire is coded entirely in Java. It uses the PortableApps directory structure. The launcher is made in AutoIt3 instead of NSIS, because I just plain like it better. You MUST read readme.txt in the LimeWirePortable directory, because this download doesn't include LimeWire (I wanted to include LimeWire Pro users without breaking any laws.) The readme file will explain what to do.

I've posted a quick test of the launcher and installer being built using Simplified Chinese for folks to test. It's the first test of a non-ASCII build and I want to ensure the character encodings are set properly. As NSIS is non-Unicode, the installer and launcher's text will only show up correctly if you're using Windows configured to the correct locale. For other users, it will show up as random-looking characters.

If some of our Simplified Chinese users could give this a try and report your results, it would be much appreciated.

XBoard and WinBoard are graphical user interfaces for chess. They display a chessboard on the screen, accept moves made with the mouse, and load and save games in Portable Game Notation (PGN). They serve as front-ends for many different chess services, including:
Chess engines that will run on your machine and play a game against you or help you analyze, such as GNU Chess, Crafty, or many others. A list of compatible engines is available.

For those that have no lives :P, Stellarium Portable is the popular Stellarium astronomy program packaged as a portable app. Stellarium has real-time heavens-viewing, so that you can see the stars without having to get out a telescope, even during the daytime. (More details)

I would like to give a big thanks to Patrick for advising me on a launcher problem.

To-do

• Add appinfo.ini

New in Pre-Release 2

• Fixed left directory
• Fixed configuration settings typo

Development Note: SpeedCrunch will not be updated to the latest PortableApps.com Format until the 1.0 release of SpeedCrunch as settings are planned to be stored in an INI file.

Here's an update to SpeedCrunch Portable for those interested. For those that don't know, SpeedCrunch is an advanced but still fairly easy to use calculator that's good for simple adding of advanced equations. I'll have a couple more updates to it eventually, once the author gets an icon worked out, he hopes to have a release by both the official site and PortableApps.com if we can work that out.
