Request Apps

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

WinEyes

Submitted by millarrp on October 15, 2007 - 7:29pm

It's a windows port of Xeyes that's found in Unix. For those that's never heard of it before (like me before I found it), it's a set of eyes that will follow the mouse pointer around the screen. I figured that if nothing else, it should give a few moments of pointless fun.

It looks like it's written in C++, and according to the website it's released under the GPL.

it is located at:

it enables Vista Areo on XP systems, it would be nice so I could add some pizazz to my school computers when I am logged on, It's really realistic (as in Vista-Like)
The author also says "Do you have the boring Windows 2000 or XP, and wish it looked like Windows Vista? Or are you stuck with the Windows Home Vista Basic Version without the Aero feature? Maybe you just want to give your existing system a finishing touch... If so, you need the new VystalVivid.
VystalVivid gives your borders the Aero Glass effect just by one click.

[Self-Promotion] Include Nawras Files Splitter

Submitted by nawras_georgy on October 14, 2007 - 12:26pm

I think the software "Nawras Files Splitter v4.0" must be included in your apps list and your apps suite, because it helps us to split any file into smaller parts but also assembling them without using any program as long you are assembling them on a Windows-PC.
Please note that the version 4 is not published yet, but it's going to be soon.
If you want to have a beta version, please write a request to [Email address removed by moderator RM: No self promotion on these forums]

Open Workbench

Submitted by rasriniv on October 11, 2007 - 10:11am

Has anyone looked at porting OpenWorkbench to Portable Apps? I know that the scheduling algorithm is protected by Computer Associates, but the run time is free and the dll can be included in any Portable Applications. If I have a replacement for Microsoft Project, my Portable Applications would be complete.

Thanks & Regards

some apps

Submitted by xarlieb on October 10, 2007 - 2:15pm

just wanted to propose some apps, that would be great to have in the portable apps launcher.

- mp3gain
- mp3tag
- blogdesk

i know mp3gain is opensource, so i guess there should be no problem. blogdesk and mp3tag are both freeware but not opensource, so that would be more difficult...

could it be posible to have a codec pack like k-lite codec pack with the media player classic to work with the portableapps launcher?

thx!
