Request Apps

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

Portable image/ISO mounter

Submitted by jahvascriptmaniac on May 30, 2007 - 10:08am

Well the following post : https://portableapps.com/node/1774 seems to be closed, so I'll re-open it here Smile

I think building an app that would mount iso's is possible, because the following app :

http://www.yadabyte.com/Yadabyte_Portables.php
(look for Yadabyte Disk)

can mound an encrypted disk, and I don't think it requires administrative rights.

Note : yadabyte disk is marked as "temporarily unavailable" bu once I managed to download it - not the source code however ;( - by hitting random files - it's file number 56 or something like this Smile

Make qemu portable (to have little portable penguins running around)

It would be great to have qemu as a portable ap. In fact, I think someone already did it, maybe you could request him/her to list it here: http://www.erikveen.dds.nl/qemupuppy/index.html#3.0.0 (see table for the file "allinoneqemu.exe").r

If qemu becomes portable, making portable linux distros would be easier than anything.

Thanks.

WinDjView request

http://windjview.sourceforge.net/

A viewer for .djvu eBooks.

GPL license.

Small app (~500KB download for .exe installer) Smile

Would be useful in a similar way to SumatraPDF - obviously .djvu is less common than .pdf but anyone with a djvu file would suddenly find this *very* useful!

Not yet tested (just downloaded, currently running Linux) but the installed folder might be near-portable as it is.

Any questions/feedback welcome, all programmers worshipped...
