Request Apps

I know, I know...I've requested MyPaint before, but the Windows development for MyPaint is close to being dead. The Linux side is great but no one wants to volunteer for updating the Windows side.

So as an alternative, I'd like to request these two apps. Both are freely available one as a freeware and the other as open-source. Though, reading more about them kind of raises some questions on how they can be portable...but I have faith on our devs here.

Found a neat new "all access" remote app that's FOSS. Terminals is a neat app that does RDP/VNC/SSH/Telnet/etc all in one. I don't know that I would have time right now to dig into this, plus the app is written in C# so we have a .NET dependency.

Add to that, that I'm not sure their license would allow it without direct permission. So I'm posting it here in case someone else (maybe John?) will take a look and be able to work on this.

Can you make this file manager be also portable?

Hope I'm in the right place.

I see that there was some discussion of the portability of a pdf printer back in 2007/8.

I'm using XP. Is it still the case that a printer as perceived by Win is so intrinsic that it cannot be made portable?

I am aware of Libre Office and other apps that can print to pdf, this is a question about having a pdf printer whenever the ability to print is available.

I think the answer is "no, it can't be done because of the way Win does printing" but I thought I'd ask just in case.

Hello community!

There is really good tool created by Atlassian, which allow you easily usage of GIT or HG. Sad thing, there is no portable mode. I was trying to set the system variables, but... without any effort.

There is homepage of the app: http://sourcetreeapp.com/

If someone can create it Portable, so that all App Files and created files will be withing the EXE path, that would be awesome.

Thanks!

Intro: Hi, John. I'm a long time (ab)user of PortableApps and also a Drupal user but this is the first time I'm going to make an app request. Thanks for the opportunity :-).

Program: BareGrep

What it is: A free file finding and text searching tool with latest release "Release 3.50a" dated 2006-11-02

I don't even know if any apps of this category EXIST, but I know that it would be rather useful. What I've got in mind is something that tracks processes - particularly apps from the Portableapps folder - and acts like a firewall for the registry. That way, if someone finds an app that works without the registry but wants to use it anyway (Looking at you, scirra.com team!) you can use it anyway.

I’d like to request RedShift GUI.

http://sourceforge.net/projects/redshiftgui/

The developer is Mao Yu aka Maoserr, but he doesn’t seem to be active anymore.

This is a program similar to F.lux—it changes the color temperature of your monitor based on time of day, to make nighttime use more comfortable.

Unlike F.lux, it can run without an install, semi-portably. The problem is it doesn’t store its settings in the same directory as the executable, but in AppData, requiring the user to manually copy over redshiftg.ini.

Ok, not sure if this, the Portable apps dev, or general forum is the right place to post it. If I screwed up then sorry ^^;

Anyway, I found a VPN app called "Freegate" that doesn't require installation or special drivers.
All I can say it works like a charm, the IP adress of the computer I was using changed from "CYBERARLES france" to some electronic company in the US XD
Its main objective though is "anti-censorship", for China I believe. But it'll work for privacy also.
