Request Apps

Got a suggestion for an app that should be portable? Post it here.

Alien Arena

hi this is my first post ever, so please don't go nuts if I say,do or suggest something wrong.

Now to the app, I think it would be cool if Alien Arena was portable.
Alien Arena is open source so i think its possible.

Here's the link to download alien arena: http://icculus.org/alienarena/rpa/aquire.html

I'm only 12 so don't ask me to do it my self because my programing skills aren't great.

Thanks.

I couldn't find the topic here.

mRemoteNG is a continuation of great app mRemote. It is open source and free and there is already a portable version of the software.

Basically this is a remote access client. It Can do Telnet, SSH, RDP, Citrix And HTML and VNC and all this in one window with tabs. Ive been using it for a while and it is a great admin tool. I wish i could see it as a part of portableapps.

portableapps platform should download/update new apps

Submitted by Bob Bagwill on March 2, 2010 - 8:35am

It would be useful if the portableapps platform could download and update apps itself. The apps should be digitally signed, and the platform app would download and verify the signature. It would be desirable if multiple versions of the same app could be installed, so new versions could be tested somewhat safely.

Gpredict (satellite tracker)

Submitted by tuxtoolman on March 2, 2010 - 2:11am

Gpredict is a satellite tracking program for free amateur radio communication using amsat satellites and the International Space Station amateur transponder and radio BBS. Somebody with a walkie-talkie type radio can access these satellites if they can make or bring along a portable yaggi antenna.

Travelers might not have their own computer or PDA but do have the radio gear. It would be nice when at a hostel to plug in a usb drive and track or print out the days satellite passes. The satellite passes only last around 10-15 minutes and are hard to predict without a program.
