Request Apps

Hi,

I need to record my billable time when sitting at **any computer**. I use portable FireFox, ThunderBird, FileZilla and Gaim to achieve most of what I need moving between client's sites and using their computers. I found a time-recorder (http://www.cratchit.org/) but it only records totals - i.e. I spent 317 minutes working for Client A. I need recorded time and date info with an easy calendar / clock system to add / delete records.

Does anyone have any suggestions? A spreadsheet would work but Oo.org seems to be overkill for this.

Cheers

Hi all,

I know there is a lack of financial software out there, but i just came across Money Manager Ex, a not .NET open source finanical software on portablefreeware.com. It says the program is portable, but writes a few entries to the reg. Would be fantastic to have a truly portable version of this.

I'm pretty concerned about using my thumb drive in some public/shared computer. Is there a portable tool/app out there that I can use to track the changes made to my thumb drive? What I want to do is: take snapshots of the file/dir structure of my thumb drive, compare and report on file/dir added, deleted, changed in between these two snapshots. I just need to know which file has been changed, I don't need to know what content has been changed.

I know I can use md5sum to track which file has been changed, but it can't track creation of file/dir. Anyone out there can help?

There is PDFCreator (http://sourceforge.net/projects/pdfcreator/) and there is apparently PDF-Creator. Some lawyer is smelling money, undoubtedly. This program masquerades as a printer driver and manages the Ghostscript conversion of anything thrown at it. I imagine making something like this portable would be tricky if not impossible, but given the advent of affordable 4- and 8gb flash drives, the size of Ghostscript+typefaces (not "fonts", children; typeface is a design while fonts are particular size-implementations) is not so daunting. I assume the nasty part is making a pseudo-printer-driver visible in different computing environments?...

Many of you many be familiar with Zinio Reader, which delivers digital magazine subscriptions via e-mail. Zinio has developed some postable version for special USB devices using U3 spec. Would love to see one for non-U3 portable devices. Anyone seen anything here?

Thanks!

Best pong game ever. It's not open source but it's free. I was wondering if you guys could tell me if the zip version is completely portable. Thanks.

Foxmail rocks, especially the built-in hotmail proxy.
This would make a nice clean easy portable app!!!!
Hope it goes through as atleast a thought.

Does anyone know if a portable N game is possible.
I'll check when I get home.
It should be possible, since it only writes to the application directory.
Plus, it's open source.
Edit: Linky!
So, do you think we could do it?
Edit 2: Nothing with RegMon, now trying FileMon.
Edit 3: Looks portable!
