Portable App Development

Hello,
I'm testings Thunderbird RC1 and just noticed that within Account Settings \ Junk Settings, the drop down list for "Trust junk mail headers set by:" is about a 1/16" high and is not readable.

does someone have the source or know how john created the new PA installer? I'm really interested. i searched but couldn't find anything except that he announced that he would be adding it in the new updates for apps.

Please see this thread for information about the Application Manager Portable project. This posting is no longer relevant.

Hello all,

A friend just told me about the Portable Apps Suite, so I downloaded it and gave it a try. It's an interesting system, but I'd like to suggest the addition of a "package management" system such as Debian's APT to facilitate application installs, removals, and upgrades.

Hi there. Just want to enquiry something.
Is it possible to limit the number of times of Portable Apps.exe?

Example is that each time I click on the PortableAppsMenu.exe, it will jus keep on launching and launching in the system tray icon.
Thus if I accidentally click it 10times, there will be 10 tray icons there. And 10 applications of POrtableAppsMenu running in the Task Manager.

Is there a way to limit the number of the Portable APps menu to just once?

Regards,

Thanks for Portableapps. I am totally new to using apps on a usb flash drive so forgive some dumb questions. I am installing my program I wrote on a flash drive. It works great but I would like to have it load automatically when plugged in or even on the portableapp menu.

A search of Google indicates that autorun will only work on CD's and not USB Drives.

Any ideas greatly appreciated. I finally was able to remove U3, Portableapps is much better.

Hello,

I would like to repackage the portable firefox, with some modifications I have made to it, back into the NSIS executable.
Is there someway that I could find the NSIS files (and all other needed files) so that I could use the existing files instead of recreating these files by myself?

Thank you,

What folder to create for each folder like Porgram Files folder ect. that in portable apps there is a Data folder in it theres profile folder to current user profile like i understanded. Is the data copyed from folders to specified locations? What other folders can i create to make files to be copyed to Windows or Program Files or Home Drive?

Will be there a script to make a portable app with license screen when you want to launch it? How to make a setup for portable app like the new VLC Player you launched? Im newbie for portable apps. Sorry if its a dum question.

I decided to add a couple features to the PortableAppsMenu because I wanted those features and they're very easy to implement and thought I'd share it with the rest of you.

added the ability to hide files and give them display names

to add a display name:
1. make a corresponding text file with a '.displayname' extentsion
-the filename itself is the .exe name plus the extentsion .displayname
-myprogram.exe's displayname is stored in the file myprogram.displayname

e.g. if I want to give a display name to myprogram.exe I just make a text file called
