Portable App Development

Alright, so I've been happily using the WinampPortable launcher and thought I'd see if any portable LastFM scrobblers were out there that would simply work as a plugin within Winamp.

I found one, but it stores its login settings in a registry key. Bad news for portability. I've done some scripting before, but I'm by no means a programmer. I think I could edit the WinampPortable.nsi to do what it needs to do with the registry entries, but I'm not sure how to compile it.

This is a very useless theme. An anaglyph theme. You're needing special glasses (red-left/right-green) to view it proper.

I've noticed Travis and a few others (like me) make Beta Apps because people need/want more apps. But Development Tests are for apps that people are trying to get on the list. I would suggest that there be a name of apps that are PAF'ed, but not for the list should have a special name, something like 'Unofficial Edition' or something. Just a thought.

who would you go about removing
Documents and Settings\$user$\avidemux?

could you modify this script?

SetOriginalKeyBack:
		CopyFiles /SILENT "$APPDATA\avidemux\*.*" "$SETTINGSDIRECTORY"
		IfFileExists "$APPDATA\Avidemux-backupbyavidemuxportable" +1 
		Rename "$APPDATA\Avidemux-backupbyavidemuxportable" "$SETTINGSDIRECTORY"
		RMDIR /r "$APPDATA\Avidemux"
		Goto TheEnd

Thanks in Advance,

I've look in the help file and online with no answers to my question.

can NSIS wait till certain keys are held down to continue executing? (ex: CTRL+E)

I was wondering how do u make one exe in nsis that would contain all the necessary files to run? I have read in forums that this can be done but I have not found an answer on how to do it. It would be awesome to know how to do this for personal use. If somebody here knows the basics on how to do this, I would appreciate any help you can give me. Thanks for any answers I recieve.

this code handles 1 registry key only and works:

What do i have to add into this .nsi file so it wont say invalid command GetRoot?

thanks.

Hi Folks!
We made a splashscreen template for anyone how needs it. It's without PortableApps.com-logo. Instead we're using a bag (or call it suitcase) where you could paste your logo, icon or screenshot in. There are 5 poses in 3 intensities. You could work by png-templates, but there's also a PSD included. For further works, we added an icon with 12 formates and the bag poses in 5 large pics. Additionally, there are 6 sample splashscreens to have a quick overview.

Hello,

I use applications from PortableApps.com since years, but since the combination of some portable apps I have some path problems.
I dislike the default path structure with:

PortableDrive:\
+\PortableApps\
+\AnyApplicationPortable\

My path structure is like this

PortableDrive:\
+\Software\
+\AnyApplication\

If you use portable applications like WinSCP with PUTTY/Notepad++ integration it will not work. Thats why I suggest a *new* ini file in the PortableApps folder (or folder Software). This ini file should store the path to the application directory:
