Portable App Development

I have a question:

JPEGView uses an ini file to store its settings. The new 1.0.17 version introduces new features which come with new ini entries. If the /Data folder shouldn't be touched, how do I update the ini file without overwriting it and thus deleting possible changes the user made?

I know that NSIS can write ini strings, but what about comments like

; Amount of local density correction of highlights
; Can be in [0, 1]
LDCDarkenHighlights=0.25

Thanks for your input.

Woah, SuperTuxKart reaches to 180 MB.

(Okay, I stink at ascii art.)
I ran WinDirStat and found that the top extensions for size are:

• .svn-base (88 MB/ 50%)
• .rbg (42 MB/ 24%)
• .ogg (24 MB/ 14%)
• .ac (21 MB/ 12%)

For .svn-base, I'm pretty sure they are useless, but I can't be sure. I can't find any information from google.
For .rbg, they are 3d image files, don't know if they are compressible.

There are many great open source apps written in Java and we're currently avoiding them because of the Java Portablizing.

MrE

Hi I am creating a new game but I'm a total programming loser please give me the code for the portable app launcher (For example 7zipportable.exe) and a clear backgroung with only portable and a usb flash on it everything else should be clean!
I promise to post it once I finished developing it!

I've been thinking i wanted to try to make an app. But I'm pretty new to programming all together. (I've had a little c++ experience but thats about it). So I wanted to try something small. I just want to try to create an entry in the portable apps menu that executes an exe. can someone show me the most simplest way to do that. Thanks in advance.

P.S. i apologize if this is shown elsewhere, i briefly searched but couldn't find anything.

Hello,
I'm trying to portabilize an application for myself (ImageJ) and I would like to make it PAM compatible for installation (Iwante to create a paf.exe). i try to edit portableApps.com.installer.nsi, and then to compile it with NSIS. But i have this error :

Invalid command: MoreInfo::GetProductName
Error in script "Z:\PortableApps\PortableImageJ\Other\Source\PortableApps.comInstaller.nsi" on line 234 -- aborting creation process

Can you help me please ? I have poor programming level

Thanks

I found many posts saying that the portable version of Free Download Manager is problematic.
But I have found that if we disable all the browser monitoring the it works flawlessly.

I like your menu but it is not at all customizable, so I am using PStart.
I tried searching the forums but got confused.
Is there a way to make your menu customizable. Please provide the link
