Discuss portable app development and modification of existing apps.
I'm not sure if this is the place to post this but...
I know a lot of other websites have apps that can be portable.
Like CCleaner or IconFX.
Why create a list of portable programs not made by portableapps?

Was IDEA!!!
I really love the open source Idea, but I'm a noob when it comes to scripting and programming. So I'm playing with batch files atm. As per my post here. Also I've been trying to find an open source calculator to replace the MS calc.exe (from XP) that I have been using. Plenty of "freeware" no open source though. SpeedCrunch is too big for my needs.
Is there a trojan, rootkit, spyware etc. application that will browse through the FirefoxPortable folder and check for any spyware and nasty cookies etc?
Something like Spybot search & destroy perhaps?
Thank you
I searched the forum and someone asked a similar question and the only response was that the next major release will have this ability.
I know that it is rather easy to search for a registry key with the Registry plugin but doesn anyone know a methode to search for a registry value?
My problem is this:
PopMan can be set to autostart with Windows and it does that by writing a registry value called
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run: PopMan: "J:\PortableApps\PopManPortable\App\PopMan\PopMan.exe -minimize"
I need someone or step by step tutorial that can help me to create my first portable app.
Thanks
HOW DO YOU MAKE A PROGRAM PORTABLE!
Sorry for being so dumb but I can't find a tutorial anywhere on portableapps.
I really like the idea of making an app portable but I just can't find out how.
I know that john gave a short guide here, but it doesn't tell the whole process.
Is there a guide anywhere? Please post a link here.
THANK YOU SO MUCH!

Hello,
you can find here my toolkit for my own porable apps (I call them "pocket apps"). I developped this basic toolkit two years ago. At that time I was deeply impressed by PortableApps suite but unfortunatly my favorite apps were not available (gvim, unison and jbrout). SO that I start my own "fork" of PortableApps suite to fulfill my needs.
