Request Apps

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

Request: Yahoo_autosync.exe

Submitted by pwhooftman on September 20, 2007 - 5:13pm

My work-pc is so heavily locked down that i haven't been able to find an app that synchronizes Outlook (in Exchange mode) with Yahoo Calendar or Google Calendar.
With locked down, i mean no admin rights, no possibility to load add-ins in Outlook, no installation of .net framework 2.0.

It seems to me that Yahoo Autosync (http://calendar.mail.yahoo.com/YYY,436912/srt,0/?v=120&a0=2&pv=61) comes close to a lightweigth sync client, but there are stil registry entries involved.

Can anyone make an true portable app out of yahoo autosysnc?

P2Portable

I know, I know, I did a search and see people have posted about Ares p2p client before, AND that someone is working on one, but the one that is being worked on doesn't seem to be working and hasn't been updated. So if you could get a portable apps version of ares, PLEASE do so, or if not ares any open source P2P client. A p2p could be like one of the best portable apps ever, download anything, anywhere!.

here's the ares website: http://aresgalaxy.sourceforge.net/

Ok, some of you might know that I am a guy that makes the apps I want portable, but I am a bit tired since I have been doing ALOT. So anyways I would like a N64 Emulator made portable. I don't know what would be a good one (I don't even know the name of ANY N64 Emulators).

If no one wants to do one, just tell me of a good one (preferably one powerful and simple, like VisualBoyAdvance (basically I want a N64 emulator that does the job as good as VBA does its job for emulating GBA games)) and I will make it myself and I will have another project! ^_^ and T_T

After searching (and found not even a single mention in any thread)... I'm writing to request a game, AssaultCube... it already can be run as portable (unzipping on PDrive and running from there) but it doesn't keep the settings/profile so a launcher is needed...

Can anybody do it?

uh! http://assault.cubers.net/

And it is GPL...

AssaultCube, formerly ActionCube, is a free first-person-shooter based on the game Cube.

May i suggest a open source audio extractor. I have been looking for an extractor for a while now and i keep hearing post bout Audio editing programs. i see we have 2 already but i haven't seen one that could extract audio form video. Maybe some one could look in to this. AoA Audio Extractor. it is free and open source and also under the GPL license. it is also 3Mb small enough to fit on a usb flashdrive.

Picaview (right click image preview!)

Submitted by achi10 on September 16, 2007 - 4:15pm

So I have this copy of Picaview that I've had for a while now and it is the greatest little tool ever! It lets you right click image files for a preview...sound simple, but if you're into image manipulation or download a lot of images, this program is a God-send.

Is there a way to put this on my portableapps?

It runs from the shell menu obviously, so I'm not sure if it needs to register DLLs or what the process is for getting this program to even work standalone.

Here's a copy of the software...
