Hello Portable App people --
I would love Portable Inkscape (or is it Inkscape Portable... /me doesn't like the new names). It would be great companion for GIMP Portable as well as Blender. As far as I know, Blender is already portable. It's a great 3D program; it's cross-platform, less than 16MB, and runs off a USB key/iPod/whatever. If you've ever wanted to try 3D software, it's a great program. A bit hard to learn, but there are plenty of tutorials, and it isn't too hard if you put in a bit of effort.

Anyway, Portable Inkscape would rock.

hmm howbout tor and privoxy? i saw "torpark" but... i dunno, comes with its own ver of mozilla and i dunno seems like its only for webbrowsing not for *everything* then agian im sure i can edit the configs for privoxy and tor as u see fit
but id just rather see it work like the regular tor/privoxy vidalia package, u kno?

i was gonna say Xchat or some other IRC program but mozilla's chatzilla will suffice, and god kno's we dont want to waste space with uneeded crap, hmm i signed up with the intent to have a realy big list but now that im forced to write im at a loss i droped utorrent on my ipod also and it works fine, great that its just a single binary, and putty, pscp psftp and winscp i have all in my putty dir gotta love those single binary,

I've just started taking a C++ class and thought it would be usefull to have a full featured for my USB drive. I found a freeware open source IDE here http://www.bloodshed.net/devcpp.html
So far its worked well for me so far. I'm not sure if it needs to install drivers or anything like that. So it may not be a possibility.

This is one of the best free bible-reading programs I found so far.
Is there a chance, that someone makes a portable version of this?

Hi,

I need to record my billable time when sitting at **any computer**. I use portable FireFox, ThunderBird, FileZilla and Gaim to achieve most of what I need moving between client's sites and using their computers. I found a time-recorder (http://www.cratchit.org/) but it only records totals - i.e. I spent 317 minutes working for Client A. I need recorded time and date info with an easy calendar / clock system to add / delete records.

Does anyone have any suggestions? A spreadsheet would work but Oo.org seems to be overkill for this.

Cheers

Hi all,

I know there is a lack of financial software out there, but i just came across Money Manager Ex, a not .NET open source finanical software on portablefreeware.com. It says the program is portable, but writes a few entries to the reg. Would be fantastic to have a truly portable version of this.

I'm pretty concerned about using my thumb drive in some public/shared computer. Is there a portable tool/app out there that I can use to track the changes made to my thumb drive? What I want to do is: take snapshots of the file/dir structure of my thumb drive, compare and report on file/dir added, deleted, changed in between these two snapshots. I just need to know which file has been changed, I don't need to know what content has been changed.

I know I can use md5sum to track which file has been changed, but it can't track creation of file/dir. Anyone out there can help?

There is PDFCreator (http://sourceforge.net/projects/pdfcreator/) and there is apparently PDF-Creator. Some lawyer is smelling money, undoubtedly. This program masquerades as a printer driver and manages the Ghostscript conversion of anything thrown at it. I imagine making something like this portable would be tricky if not impossible, but given the advent of affordable 4- and 8gb flash drives, the size of Ghostscript+typefaces (not "fonts", children; typeface is a design while fonts are particular size-implementations) is not so daunting. I assume the nasty part is making a pseudo-printer-driver visible in different computing environments?...
