WorldCoin (and LiteCoin)

Submitted by Timelord2067 on May 29, 2013 - 9:09pm

Hello again,

I was wondering if it would be possible to create a PortableApps version of WorldCoin? From what I can tell it's a direct descendant of BitCoin via LiteCoin and at this time at least the "Mining"ability had been left active.

It only took 75 meg to download the whole block chain (total 85,000 approx) so the program is still very new.

I don't know if the three are interchangeable (no doubt some bright spark will work out an exchange method between the three)

Opera Mail

Opera has decided to make their mail/rss reader stand-alone, and I believe their client deserves to be "portableized". I prefer its simple and quick interface to TBird or other portable mail clients. So here's my vote and request that Opera Mail be packaged in PortableApps format. Thanks.

Hi all,

Homeword 1

Submitted by Tattorack on May 22, 2013 - 11:17am

How about a portable version of the first Homeworld game?
They did release the source code after all, and said it was "partly" open source in the least (not sure if thats even possible...)

Request: portable todo list for PC with Android app

Submitted by Bas6t on May 21, 2013 - 5:33am

Hi,

I'm looking for a portable app to manage tasks (todo list), that can do a 2-way sync to/from an Android smartphone, either by USB cable or through the cloud (services like Google, RTM, Astrid, etc.).

Best would be a *portable* app that can sync with Outlook, but if that isn't possible I'd be happy to manage my tasks with a separate PC-app, as long as it's portable.

As I use Fingertips to enter taks items, it would be nice if new tasks can be entered from the commandline or (in the case of a cloud service) by sending an email to the cloud service (as in RTM).

Thanks!
