Request Apps

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

Remote desktop

Submitted by AJNAZARIO on July 18, 2007 - 2:33pm

Can we or do we already have an open source type remote desktop app we can use?
Can we develop an easy to use remote desktop app? Would it be too difficult to do so?

Reason is that sometime we need to use something that is just way too big to carry on a port drive, so remote-ing in would help. for example access pics or vids or files on your home desktop or server etc...

Just wondering.... let me know...thanx in advance~AJ

Req. ICE Book Reader Portable

Having this piece of software would allow users to read .Lit files Portably

I have tried on numerous occasions to make msreader portable but no joy.

This one, I got about 50% of the way to a portable just by copying the files across to another drive and deleting but it leaves a lot of dross in user folders and the registry.

Portable QTParted

First I would like to say that I am very pleased with all the portable apps I have been using and I think this is a great idea and great community.
I am not sure about all the details on this program but I do know QTParted is licensed under GPL v2. This might be a good app to make portable so now you can have a partition resizing program to help with dual booting.This may be a good app to look into.
