Request Apps

does anyone know of a portable dos menu, the can be used to launch apps in the same and/or different directory.

i need this app to be small, so i can run a set of small tools without taking up room in PAM display.

i have tied to download dosshell, but wherever i go it wont download.

help.

Can we or do we already have an open source type remote desktop app we can use?
Can we develop an easy to use remote desktop app? Would it be too difficult to do so?

Reason is that sometime we need to use something that is just way too big to carry on a port drive, so remote-ing in would help. for example access pics or vids or files on your home desktop or server etc...

Just wondering.... let me know...thanx in advance~AJ

Having this piece of software would allow users to read .Lit files Portably

I have tried on numerous occasions to make msreader portable but no joy.

This one, I got about 50% of the way to a portable just by copying the files across to another drive and deleting but it leaves a lot of dross in user folders and the registry.

First I would like to say that I am very pleased with all the portable apps I have been using and I think this is a great idea and great community.
I am not sure about all the details on this program but I do know QTParted is licensed under GPL v2. This might be a good app to make portable so now you can have a partition resizing program to help with dual booting.This may be a good app to look into.
