Portable App Development

I just created a new SF.net project called PortableApps.com Extras.

Project page:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/portableappsext/

It has Apps that I have redesigned the layout to work on the PortableApps Suite.

If the original PortableApps site developers wish to create downloads in their Applications section for this software then thats fine by me.

I just wanted to share with and extend the PortableApps community.

I think the abilty to dock the menus to the screen edge and autohide, so that you just bump the screen edge with the cursor to access the menu would be great. It would be faster than clicking the systray icon and allow access on systems where the systray is locked. Would this be possible on any of the menus?

I work for a GIANT blue chip company and use excel very heavily but since the discovery of portable apps I have fallen in love with all apps but in particular with Calc, however, while I and many friends would love to stop using all other vendors programs in favour of calc app, we find that there is one small functionally missing to make it complete, and that is to have the option to SAVE AS .txt and then check mark options to choose selected range only.

For this particular task we currently use Lotus 123. We have to have it saved this way because SAP system only likes .txt uploads.

I tryed to create the folder structure for GeoGebra; is there a way to verify everything is fine? I will then modify our existing installer to support PortableApps...

Hi,

I’m a newbie to PortableApps (but not application deployment as I use Novell ZenWorks at work) and I have a deployment question.

I’ve been doing lots of searching on the forum (and Google) about portable applications and how to install / deploy them.

When an application needs to write to the registry, the launcher / wrapper firstly makes a copy of the registry key, writes the new settings, launches the application, and then writes the original settings back to the registry.

Ok, look, im truying to help out some. I first made a launcher for what turned out to be proprietary software, and that sure as hell backfired. I was expecting a "thanks" and I got "you are illigal go away".

Anyhow, i understand.

so here is the deal, i am going to make a portable launcher for an app that wont get everyones panties in a wad.

I was thinking of my favorite emulator. http://gens32.emubase.de/

It should easily comply with the .paf requirements, everyhting is confined inside the program folder.

Is there a description of what should be in AppInfo.ini, or is it still in flux?

I was starting my first attempt at a portable app, and was trying to fill it out, but I was a little confused that there are three entries for version ([Format] Version, [Version] PackageVersion, [Version] DisplayVersion) and there is also [Version] PackageRevision.

I think everything else is pretty self explanatory, but those fields are a little confusing.

I always having trouble while downloading file in cybercafe,expecially when the cybercafe using ADSL connection. Any one can help where can i get portable flashget or somethin??

Anyone got any instructions or help on making a personal copy of Maya PLE run portably?

Thanks in advance.
