Inkspace

Submitted by Serazahr on October 6, 2007 - 11:34am

I like gimp very much and it is a very helpful portable alternative if your used PS, but when it comes to svg or similar, gimp loses extreme efficiency. And for desktop use Illustrator does most of what I need, but I also work on other people's computer, where most of the time don't have Illustrator, so what about making Inkspace portable?

Hi,
I have seen some people have already suggested this, but they don't look very convinced. Well, let me tell you that there is already a portable version.

Program: Programmer's notepad

License: Open Source/GPL (http://www.sf.net/projects/pnotepad)

Description: A source code editor and integrating tools ide. It has colored syntaxis, code folding, code browser, code autocompletion, output capturing (useful when you integrate compilers), and support for a wide set of languages (uses ctags)

App Request - CPU-Z

Submitted by spettini on October 4, 2007 - 9:29am

Hi,

can you wrap CPU-Z (http://www.cpuid.com/cpuz.php) as PortableApp?

As you can read on its website:

CPU-Z does not need to be installed. Just unzip the files in a directory and run the .exe. In order to remove the program, just delete the files, and that's it.
The program does not copy any file in any Windows directory, neither writes in the registry.

CPU-Z is a freeware but closed source with unknown license.

Many peoples looking for this database as portable version, but Postgres account requirement prevents installing e.g. on usb stick. Can You do this? Thanks for Your patience.

App Request - Shock 4Way 3D Launcher

Submitted by LittleUnkn0wn on October 2, 2007 - 4:14pm

Program: Shock 4Way 3D
License: Freeware
Description: To quote the site, "It provides 4 virtual screens"

Yes, I know it's not open-source, but could anybody make a launcher? The portable version they advertise isn't really portable b/c there is a settings file with an absolute path.

If somebody could make it, that would be fantastic. If not, I'll go try to learn NSIS and do it myself.
