Portable App Development

Hi John,

last weekend we had a meeting of members of OpenOffice.org Deutschland e. V.

At this meeting we discuss ways to support other communities/persons who also work on Open Source Software.

I'm happy to inform You, that we will sponsor PortableApps.com with 500 Euro for the technical charges of hosting PortableApps.com.
Perhaps we could do more in the future.
At the moment it is a first step to show You our will to support this great project.

Please contact me via email in order to discuss the details.

Regards
Marko

I'm making a batch file launch script thingy, and I was looking at licenses. Can I, (or should I) put a license on it? It would obviously be open source...
But then I thought that I might not even be able to put a license on a batch script.

So what do you guys think I should do? This is really just a step towards my eventual leap into programming, and I'd like to keep my work as my own, not as someone else posting it as their own and saying they made it.

So a while ago I download SciTE, and I like it, and then I see an official release of Notepad++ which I downloaded a few minutes ago and there seems to be no (major) difference.

So are you going to release both, or were you trialling both and then decided that Notepad++ was more appreciated by the community?

I have made a PortableApps icon template for folders
It includes a empty folder icon, top flap, and bottom flap

it is available at

Hello everyone, I'm really new to Portable Apps.

I'm using the Portable Apps mod r15 and my Icons for each application are not showing up. There is just a black outline of a box in place of each icon.

Does anyone know why this is?

Thanks!

I want to make an app portable, but it uses registry keys.
So, is there a tool that can determine the used keys and maybe write a .reg file to add and delete those keys from the registry ? If yes, how does it work exactly ?

We need more emulators! Like Portable DosBox or Nester or Daemon Tools n stuff.

Which emulators would you most like to see made into portable apps?

Hi guys,

Recently I've been very addicted to the whole portable app thing, even looked into virtualization and all that business.

I'm currently using SpeedCommander as my file manager and I love it so I had the bright idea of trying to make it portable. Unfortunately I'm not talented enough to figure out all the settings to get it working right from reading the templates and other .nsi source codes!

I recommend some kind of option that when the human player in a one-player game folds, the remainder of the hand is played out instantly, results are displayed, and the next hand starts immediately after. Right now you have to watch the entire hand play out. I believe the folks who are downloading this to play off of portable devices don't want to spend a lot of time watching a hand they're not playing. I understand it's only a little time here and a little time there, but it adds up quickly.

I would like to see a feature that separates the Firefox history based on which computer you're using. This could be done using the Windows product key or a user-host name combination. When I use Firefox PE at work I only want to see my history from work. Sometimes my history has things that are NSFW because I use it in several places. I find it unlikely there is an extension that does this, since Firefox is typically non-portable.
