Request Apps

Haven't you noticed already that all the applications on this web site are open-source? Thats because poor John Haller can't just go and take the source of some big commercial program, say anything by Microsoft and modify it so it fits on a small drive. If he does, he risks huge lawsuits, because huge companies, again like Micosoft, want to make money off of their products, and just won't let anyone distribute their programs freely. So please, if you are to propose something , propose something thats opensource and stop posting junk in this section.

I'm a scientist and I am looking for something to keep a journal for my research. Currently I use sunbird for this task and it gets the job done. I just wanted to compare with other programs to see what I like best.

I think skype should be made into a portable app. What do you think?

Dear all,

I found some Protable Applications on http://www.framakey.org/Portables/Index.

I tested PortableInkscape and PortableAudacity, both are Ok. In the UserProfile directory the Audacity.reg file should be edited from "Language"="fr" to "Language"="en".

There is also a PortableWinLAME, for those how are interessted in audio applications.

Edit: Here's a better application for this:

Is it possible in the near future to have a portable app for Quicken Finance software?
I am unable to install the program @ work due to administrative privileges not being afforded to me.

Thanks

This 1.7MB (unzipped) pack contains 24 games and is listed under kikizas.net
" http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/puzzles/ "
All it really needs are icons for each game -which it's currently lacking- and it would be cool if it had a launcher to display all the games at once.

This is from the site:
"This game collection is copyright 2004-2005 Simon Tatham (portions copyright Richard Boulton, James Harvey and Mike Pinna). It is all distributed under the MIT licence. This means that you can do pretty much anything you like with the game binaries or the code, except pretending you wrote them yourself, or suing me if anything goes wrong."

Winamp would be awsome to have portable as it plays a broad range of media files and handles streaming video and audio well, which would be great to have available portably.

This isn't a portable version somethin else... I made this
It is an FTP uploader
