Portable Audacity

Submitted by Fhajad on July 3, 2006 - 1:20pm

Now, I've got a workin' copy just by simply copying the program files and deleted all the language packs but english and put the mp3 .dll in there and it works. Just the only problem really is that everytime you take it to a diffrent computer, you gotta tell it what language, and to associate .aups and tell it where the mp3 .dll is.

AVG/Adaware/SpyBot

Submitted by alpha752 on July 1, 2006 - 10:19pm

Forgive me if this has been discussed before, but I am new at this. Is there a way that I can run AVG Antivirus, Adaware, and Spybot from my USB? Quite often my parents or friends get "gunk" on their PC's and ask me to clean/fix it. I though it would be great if I could have these installed and ran from the USB, so I can just scan their drives.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Programmers notepad

Submitted by miksago on June 30, 2006 - 11:24pm

for a little while now, i've been using a program called programmers notepad (pn2 for short), and i've tried out other text editors and webpage creators, but so far, nothing has really come close to the the way pn2 works and functions.

alot of people want pn2 to be portable but, inorder to do this it requires alot of hassel and nine times out of ten, it don't work. So do you think you could make a proper portable app out of it?

cheers miksago.

[SELF PROMOTION] TinyComp - A portable application and files launcher for removable drives

Submitted by unignal on June 30, 2006 - 9:53am

TinyComp is a simple tool to start user defined applications designed to run portable applications and files on a removable

drive without the need to manually explore and browse through the drive. Shortcuts in TinyComp are relative; it can launch

the applications correctly even when the drive letters have changed.

TinyComp also detects the DCIM folder, providing quick access to photos on camera devices. Taking text-based notes and on the

fly editing and running of .bat files also supported.

It can even auto run when removable-drive is plugged into Windows XP. Just activate the "Install on this drive option"

Portable PGP/GPG

Portable PGP/GPG suit could be very useful.
I can install GPG4Win on removable disk, but I can't make it to hold key chains anywhere but the C:\Document and settings\....\PGP_something\ folder.

Submitted by oyster on June 25, 2006 - 4:43am

1. metapost is a language/software that can treate a src file and generate accurate EPS file. however, it comes with latex. latex system is huge and not portable, so is there a way to do metapost portable with minimal latex?

2. is there a portable/compact latex?

thanx
