Portable App Development

Is there any way someone could make a launcher for this app. I would really apreciate it.

Hey man Love your work on this.. But I'm here to tell you that the Backup/restore don't work all that good... I Tested it out on 3 flash drives and it did not copy the hole drive.... It only copies half the drive...

There appear to be three flavors of portable now: truly, clean, and dirty.

- Truly-portable does not modify the host at all.

- Clean-portable modifies the host but restores it after running.

- Dirty-portable runs amuck, leaving changes, removing/adding files/registry, or :gasp: installing services!

suggestion: FileMon

"FileMon monitors and displays file system activity on a system in real-time. Its advanced capabilities make it a powerful tool for exploring the way Windows works, seeing how applications use the files and DLLs, or tracking down problems in system or application file configurations"

John, thanks

I'm new to the portable apps world (and this webby), and i must say i'm impressed.
I've ported my first working application, which i noticed there are many requests for.
I would like to post my portable Shareaza on this webby for testing, but i would like to first know.

1)Does me posting this application break any rules for the website?
2)What is the correct way to submit this appliaction?
3)Can the application be posted with rapidshare links for download?

etc etc.

Anyway, please reply and tell me the correct way to do things.

UPDATE

Well, I got one request, and one suggestion.

However, I've decided to take a shot at making A Note/A-Note portable.

Has John T or anyone else considered compiling a one time use Firefox which leaves no traces on the host machine, or on the portable device it is run from?

Opera has a one time use edition at www.kejut.com/operaportable but which still uses folders created in the local settings temp folder. Opera says all information is completely destroyed upon shutdown but there are doubters to this.

I have a simple request to make about the icon that brings up the portableapps menu. Most of the time I cannot open it (a second time that is) since the... what was the name... active program icons (on the right hand side of the task bar)... something like that, since they are blocked off at my local library. They do not let anyone use those buttons, thus I cannot use portableapps, but once when it first starts.

I was hoping that it could be changed to the be a normal task bar icon, or at least letting the using set the option of how the program is to appear in the task bar.
