Request Apps

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

Audiobook Cutter

Submitted by millarrp on December 23, 2007 - 10:02pm

I stumbled across this app on sourceforge and thought it looked interesting. It's a standalone app that automatically splits up large mp3 files.

It's open source and written in C++.

I realize that Audacity can manipulate mp3 files, and based on the website this app is already portable, but I think it would be a nice app to have in .paf format

Portable Video Editor

I know of virtualdub but it's too complicated for me and it can't burn dvd's (if it can I have no clue how).
I went onto Sourceforge and found Vivia ( http://sourceforge.net/projects/vivia/ )
and Avstodvd ( http://sourceforge.net/projects/avstodvd/ )
Neither of them depend on virtual machines.
I have searched the web, as well as this site and portablefreeware.com for an easier version of virtualdub.

LyX

Lyx is a great latex editor which I find essential for writing math and engineering, It requires a basic miktex system, gsview, imagemagick, and aspell spell check dictionary. I forget what else. Would be great if it were portable.

ExplorerXP

I use this program (ExplorerXP) and like the tabbed interface. I would like to use it from my flash drive. I searched and found it on portablefreeware.com. It was a wrapper for the application and linked to mi3soft.info. The owner of the site no longer has the wrapper on his site and I cannot find another site that has the wrapper available for download. I was wondering if anybody knows where I can get the wrapper, or if someone can make another one. I would make one, but I have no idea how to.

Thanks
