Request Apps

I would like KMeleon to be portable. I believe that it takes up less space than PortableFirefox and it uses the same rendering engine. Thanks!

I think a PortableGnumeric would be very useful for those of us who want just a word processor and a spreadsheet. There is a Windows port on their website www.gnumeric.org

I use pspad as my main text/programmers editor and am very happy with it. On a whim I copied the install directory to my USB drive and now am able to use pspad at work. I've found no issues with it in portable mode.

I know it isn't open source... and maybe not even possible at all... But it would be awesome if there were a way to stick Photoshop 7 on a USB key drive, or whatever to use on any computer you want to use it on.

I hate having to connect to my computer remotely (using Remote Desktop Connection) to use Photoshop 7, and then have it be all laggy and crap.

But once again, I don't think there is a way to do this because of registry keys, etc. Just a suggestion though. Or rather, something to look into.

Hey every one, i dont know if how hard it is to make a portable program that would support .rar compression. But it would be really usefull, my school computers are really gay, and dont let me install anything on them. Anything that i get thats a rar file, i can never open.

Also, maby a portable player that would support codecs like xvid and divx... To play rip movies, because again, you can never install anything on public computers...'

Thx alot

Hi

Can anyone recommend a:

generic,
free,
open source
and preferably portable

SQL Query tool that can connect to ideally:

Oracle
SQL Server
MySQL

I understand that true portability will be limited as the middleware and configuration will have to be on the desktop, but it would be nice to just plug and play in the same way that I do with my other apps.

I just have a question.

We offer portable e-mail client The Bat! Voyager http://www.ritlabs.com/en/products/voyager/
and would like it to be included into the directory of applications of the portableapps.com site. Whom should we contact?

Thank you in advice!

How about adding uniformserver to the list. It runs Apache, PHP5 and MYSQL plus it only takes up about 15mb of space. Here is the link to the site http://www.uniformserver.com/

Your portable suite is great! I see that Portable Firefox will soon be available for U3. This enhancement is tremendously valuable to the average U3 user so that applications are easy to install and launch for those of us who are somewhat technologically challenged. Would it be difficult to make Thunderbird, Sunbird, and the other applications included in the portable suite (e.g. OpenOffice, etc.) also friendly to the U3 Launchpad?

i am badly in need of this, as i am constantly on the move, & need a good crm, that can take addressess of my contacts, maintain transactions, as & when they happen, & keep reminders & todo list. contact addresses must have configurable fields, in addition to the minimum what thunderbird provides. all thunderbird contacts should be saved as crm contacts by default, (or vice versa) so no duplicating the contacts entries.

i am willing to devote time to plan the features wish list, & do the beta testing, whenever required. anybody interested ?
