Portable App Development

Suggestion for PortableApps: allow the install/update program for all apps to take three (3) optional command line parameters:
- a "Wait for User Input" switch defaulted to Yes
- the path to the parent directory of the program defaulted to null
- an alternative Destination Folder for the install/update currently already defaulted

OK, nOOb here, go easy...

I've written a few launchers by modifying the 7-Zip code (as suggested for programs that just use the registry) and everything works great but I've run into a problem with local installs and portables from the same company existing together.

An example...

HKCU\Software\Company\Program1 (local install)
HKCU\Software\Company\Program2 (portable)

When Program2Portable is launched it renames "Company" to "Company-BackupByProgram2Portable", thereby temporarily removing the entries for locally installed Program1.

Question/Suggestion => Quesgestion

I just downloaded and started using the program, Oliver, and I find it's useful and more flexible than a first glance would suggest. Thanks!

Hey there! With all the recent releases we saw this week, it made me think about some of the most popular as well as fantastic open source applications that we have not yet 'jumped on'. Below I've summarized some of the applications I believe are more of a 'high-priority' in terms of development and believe they should get a lot more attention.

Hi,

One feature I would really love is being able to rename entries in the PA menu (at least application names)

Thanks!

How possible is it to add one or more drag handles to the PA Menu window so that it can be resized?

I have only a few apps more than a full window's worth, and it's a real hassle having to scroll up and down, and up and down, ... to launch apps that keep getting pushed off the menu top & bottom, esp. when the window itself is relatively small, and there's plenty of screen real estate for resizing. [Surely others have wondered this too, but my search for this topic came up empty.]

When I plug my stick into a 1.1 port, the XP generated error msg: "This device can perform faster ..." jumps in before or instead of the PA Menu Autorun.INF. So The PA Menu tray load gets blocked and nothing appears in the tray.

Is there a Q&D workaround for this, or is it s.t. for which a slight programme tweak possible?

[I have a few older ThinkPads I can't bear to part with which usually have USB 2.0 PCCards stuck into them at home. Not always so on the go. This might also be an issue for anyone stuck using PA on an older machine.]
