Portable App Development

Found this, and it is great. Only issue I am using on a PC installed in my car with a 800x600 wide touch screen. The window for the portableapps is too big and goes off the screen. Any thoughts on allowing resize of window or horizontal bar? Hide option for the options and mt docs etc?

Love the app just wish I could use it in the car and then bring to the desktop.

Thanks!

Hey all,
I want to know if there's a way to launch another file extension besides .exe (right now I'd like .mdb). Is there another function besides ExecWait I can do this with??

Here's my current code:
BTW: I'm making my splash screens for files, this one's for our church database.

Name "Myname"
OutFile "MyOutput.exe"
Caption "Mycaption"

Icon "Myicon.ico"

CRCCheck On
WindowIcon Off
SilentInstall Silent
AutoCloseWindow True
RequestExecutionLevel user

Section "Main"
			;=== Show the splash screen while processing registry entries
			InitPluginsDir

I have just created a tutorial about how to create a paf file with an icon.

I think I'm gonna try and make a portable version of Tile World

Once I heard someone request the old Chip's Challenge game, I really wanted to have it portably. And it was a simple game, so I could have just made a launcher for it for myself, but I couldn't release it because it's not free or open source.

Maybe I'm just not looking hard enough, but I can't seem to find anything about this. What are the specifications for the .paf.exe format? I'd like to use it for my portable CRPG, Spectacles: Bruce's Story.

I know the on start and on exit functionality has been suggested for PAM.
And ASuite already has it.
I have a suggestion for both (PAM's hopeful future support) and ASuite.
The ability to select BOTH the on start and on exit option along with a different argument for each option. This would allow the menu to start AND stop an application with the menu if the application supports it. The support could also possibly be added to the current launchers.

Hey everybody,
I've been going around this site in amazement thinking how many of my favorite programs I could use out of the house, so I decided to try it with Flash MX 2004.

Now bear with me this is my first portabilized application so there will be some registry entries left over.

1. Install and authorize your copy of Flash MX 2004, then navigate to the programs main folder (in my case C:\Program Files\Macromedia\Flash MX 2004\).

2. Make a folder to hold the program's files (I recommend directly on your flashdrive, that is if you have about 32 MB to spare).

Is there any way someone could make a launcher for this app. I would really apreciate it.

Hey man Love your work on this.. But I'm here to tell you that the Backup/restore don't work all that good... I Tested it out on 3 flash drives and it did not copy the hole drive.... It only copies half the drive...

If you need more info tell me and I'll post it....
