Portable App Development

Ok, so I know that there are updated versions of programs. But I don't want to download each one, one by one. So is it possible to have a suite of all the updated programs? Oh, and I am talking about the Standard Suite PA. And to add to that, could it be possible to have a suite with all of the apps available?

I wanted to get some opinions on including the instructions for the PortableApps.com Installer within the appinfo.ini files directly, which should eliminate the need for coding installers for most developers. It'll still be using the PortableApps.com Installer as it is now and it will still be GPLed with exceptions (and more exceptions with 1.0), but the code will be autogenerated. I'm thinking the following section at the bottom of AppInfo.ini:

[Installation]
DeleteAppDirectory=true
DeleteDataDirectory=false
DeleteOtherDirectory=true
DeleteRootDirectoryFiles=false

A nice one

since I haven't done NSIS in some time now, i was wondering which app launcher should i base a Nethack portable launcher off. it leaves a reg key, and has some setting files that need to be in the Nethack app directory for nethack to read them. any ideas?

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

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.
