Portable App Development

In an app im porting i need to set the paths of some files for it to run is there a way to get the drive letter which the portable app is running from using the launcher??

When using Registry Rapper with Portable Apps the menu shows "Registry Rapper" as the application name - is there a way to change this to the name of the application that Registry Rapper launches?

im porting a linux program to windows and within the source i have everything set to save all data to a subfolder off the main app dir but for some reason all the appdata is being sent to \Documents and Settings\Username\Application Data\foldername

is this something windows does or am i missing something in the source??

I was premature a few weeks ago when I said that KompoZer 0.7.9 had been released. That was a development release only.

However, I now quote the developer:

--------------------
I'm very pleased to announce that KompoZer 0.7.10 is finally available.
This release corrects many bugs of Nvu 1.0 and includes a usable version of the CSS editor, CaScadeS.
Unlike the 0.7.9.xxx snapshots, this release is stable and ready for end-users. KompoZer users are strongly encouraged to upgrade.

I attempted and partially succeded to make a portable version og BPFTPserver.
However I do have one problem (for which I couldn't find a solution in the forum or elsewhere):

I have a legal copy of BPFTPserver, so, naturally, I'd like to run it registered. The registration information for it is stored in HKLM/SOFTWARE/BPFTP Server/Key entry. I am not able to figure out how to set (I suppose) the launcher, that it'll enter the correct info into registry on launch of app and remove it when app is stopped?

Any help/suggestion will be appreciated.

Hello!
Just now I've finished (never!) my PAM-Mod-Theme called Arita 2600 (please be quiet, no one exept Prince could choose his name). I've worked hours and hours and weeks to present you this retro-styled artwork which is not so cluttered and bulkey like my brain or room Nope, I found it under an old newspaper near to a ragged shoe under my desk.

Preview & Download

It's for R29 and above.

i came across this software called folder tweaker on the following site

Folder Tweaker

and found it usefull(its freeware) as it allows me to change the background and icon of any folder.I was using activ Icons previously but it doesnot allow me to change the background.so could anyone plz make me a launcher for it(folder tweaker) as i tried it, but being a newbie to nsis i couldn't.

When using my stick under (Ubuntu 7.04) Linux, the folder "Documents" is not accessible.
Is there any solution for that?

Hello everybody, I've just found this forum, I'm new.
I would like to create a portable version of photoshop, because I don't want to install the program on my working place PC.
I'm interested in the whole version, not a reduction (I don't mind if it takes 500 mbytes), the most important thing is that I don't want to install it on there.
I've installed cs3 on another PC, and .... then? What should I do?
Do I need another software to detect which register have been changed?

many thanks to everybody in advance

Hello everyone

Although i'm a portable applications fan i'm quite new at this developing stuff. I've found a couple of java applications (simple jar files) which i found interesting. I've been thinking about how I can turn this Java apps into portableapps.com format.
However, I imagine I am not the first who thought in this so I wanted to know how can I do (using the portableapps.com way) to find and load the javaw.exe. Once I get the path the rest is quite easy.
