Request Apps

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

Gvim Portable already Exists :)

Just thought everyone would LOVE to know! GVim is already available as a portable app! I thought it would be listed here but I don't see it. It installed fine and works great! Although I don't use the menu that you have - I don't remember where I got the one I use (it's called Pstart.) I read about it (and portable apps) in Windows IT Pro magazine.

Here is the link

ConText programmers editor

"ConTEXT is a small, fast and powerful freeware text editor, developed mainly to serve as secondary tool for software developers. " - http://context.cx

I have used this tool for years now and I like nothing else (it has over 200 highlighters) - it serves me for everything I do and I really admire the person who made it, just the same as I admire those who have created portableapps and the apps that go to it.

I had an idea and I'm sure somebody thought on this before... But I just don't find a related post...

Suppose that you introduce your portable drive, M$Windows read the entire file system and then shows a window with options: Start YourApp (in my case "Run AciagoMovil"), play music, play video, open folder, do nothing, blablabla...

NoteCase and Freeciv

NoteCase is a hierarchical note manager (aka. outliner).
http://notecase.sourceforge.net/

Actually they already have a portable build for win32. But it would be nice to have it in PortableApps.

Freeciv
http://freeciv.org

Someone has already requested this. And yes, it does work fine by copying the install directory... But again, it would be nice to have this in PortableApps.
