Official Portable Apps Updater

Submitted by BBE on February 18, 2007 - 2:09pm

I have searched the forums for an official portable apps updater and haven't found one. So, John please could you make an app (clearly portable) that would let us update our portable apps? Also, it wouldn't be a big undertaking. Simply add version info into each portable apps and then the program would check against the version info on PortableApps.com.

Portable Autoit3+SciTE

Submitted by codemyster01 on February 18, 2007 - 11:13am

I'm a long-time user of Autoit V3, and have been writing in it for almost a year. So today i reformatted, and all my Autoit stuff went Bye Bye. I would do this myself, but it's complicated with all the includes and the structure of Autoit Directories.

So does anyone know if it's possible to make a portable Autoit and a portable SciTE Editor?

[self promotion] Password Safe

Hi,

I wrote and use Password Safe. It's a genuine Portable Application. The URL is: [Self promotional link removed by moderator JTH. As with most community forums, and as detailed in the forum guidelines and on the forum post page where you posted this, self promotion is not permitted]

It's free and I'd be happy to make the source code available if it's considered good enough to be included in the list of applications available at portableapps.com

Thanks,

Martin.

Portable Spell-Check Tool

Submitted by rsherry on February 16, 2007 - 3:28pm

It sure would be nice to have a portable spell-check tool(standalone)that I can use for my desktop software. I am a Writer and even though my authoring software has a spell-check tool built in, it must be 'built upon' as you use it, so it does not come with a standard, or even a small, dictionary. My employer does not allow anyone to install applications to our desktop, so this utility would help me very much! I could go out to the internet, but what a hassle. Even doing that is logged by our Administrators.

just a thought and dream......
