What could be really cool addition to portable apps is a small Linux distrobution that can fit onto a small flash drive and have most of the apps available. Portable Apps could distribute a lot of the apps in linux form for the OS. I probably can work on this but no promises. If you can help or have comments post. Thanks. Smile

WINCDEMU

Hello

I would like to see WinCDEMU as a portable app. It is a tool that allows you to mount and unmount ISO images under Windows. It's really useful for netbook owners who don't have a CD drive, or for those who don't wish to risk scratching their CD's.

See here:-

If you want to download a portable version, it is available for download here:-

Canonical Bazaar for Windows (version control system, Python)

Submitted by Ross Kemp on August 1, 2011 - 6:20pm

Good day mates

If some bloke decides to take this challenge and make a portable version of Bazaar for Windows, he will have my sincerest appreciation.

I'm not an expert, but I think making Bazaar portable is doable, and I would attempt to do it myself, but it just seems like a huge amount of work due to all the dependencies and shit.

Thanks in advance
Respect

Renamer with macro

Submitted by bigpallooka on July 28, 2011 - 9:44am

I really enjoyed using the macro function in Oscar's File Renamer. It's development stopped years ago and I had some issues with stability as far back as WIN XP (Win 7 on all my 'puters now). Is there a portable renamer that has this sort of function? I have tried Ant Renamer and find it restrictive or counter intuitive or not dumbed-down enough.
Regards
