Request Apps

This app is so helpful for study. You can sort search results by "number of hits". You can search for results by specifying how close words are to each other. Its better than google! Search all indexes or search them separately. For those with thousands of documents this allows you to find anything on your hard drive super fast.

Portable would be awesome.

- Bookmarks: help you jump back to your favorite/important nodes.
- Visits: three different automatic lists of visited nodes.

I know this has been said before, but I haven't heard anything in a while. Dropbox is suppose to get ride of the need for flash drives, but my work PC will not let me install Dropbox, so a portable app would be great! The Dropbox API has been out for a while.

I use Evernote everyday, but the Web App just does not compare.

What I would like to see are portable versions of both Amazon's Kindle for PC and B&N's Nook for PC applications. Those would come in handy as if we had a way to take the apps with us perhaps we wouldn't be trying so hard to break the DRM encryption on our ebooks....LOL!

Hi,

I always wondered why the stuff from Piriform still isn't packed as a portable app.

On the builds page of every program you can find a portable edition especially for removable drives. The only thing which needs to be done is simply set all files like all portable apps and create an installer. That's it. I don't have enough knowledge of NSIS for creating the stuff, so I cannot make it...
