Portable App Development

I have been working on scripts to automate the creation and set up of a Adobe® Photoshop® CS2

The Name Of the app is "Make_Portable" and its not really an app its a bunch of cmd files.
I have made what many people want (a portable Adobe® Photoshop® CS2 make and launcher)if you want to download it I have the link here but You still need either the Administrator password or you need to be an admin to run it. This I will fix as soon as we develop a working virtual registry and call re-director.

Download: It dosent work Im fixing it

Have a lot

Greetings all... I'm working on building a portable app launcher for the shareware version of WinImage just as a practice app to help me learn a bit... It works fine, but when I put my registration information in, it looses it when the app shuts down. Seems like it's not properly backing up the registry although the code looks fine to me...

Registry::_RestoreKey "$SETTINGSDIRECTORY\settings.reg" .R0
ExecWait $EXECSTRING
Registry::_SaveKey "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\WinImage"
"$SETTINGSDIRECTORY\settings.reg" "/G=1 /D=0 /B=0" .R0
Registry::_DeleteKey "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\WinImage" .R0

I have created a new portable version of Blender, an open source, cross platform suite of tools for 3D creation.

Features:

• Directory structure is compatible to portableapps.com
• uses installed settings
• fancy splash-screen

The selfextracting archive can be downloaded from its current location.

I have a copy of Rhino and Flamingo, and I am working out how to turn it into a portable app for myself (and myself only! get yer own licence :p)

Trouble is that the program uses multiple file trees and multiple registry branches. Namely because the thing has a licence manager. It also, in addition to having multiple branches in the SOFTWARE section of the registry, it uses HKEY_CURRENT_USER and HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE indepenantly...

I don't know (anything) about making a portable app... how would I do this?

ive taken instant filezilla's code from portaSoft and modified it to add the ability of running of a cd and it works with 7-zip. and i use frozen bubble (ive been messing with slax ) alot so i wanted to make a single exe version of it but everytime i compile and run it it says "sdl.dll not found maybe installing might fix this problem," so then i take silent install off to see a gui of the install it copies the files and then runs so i try runnning again it says the samething so then i go to the install dir which is %temp%\IFB then i see that the sdl.dll and all the other files have copied and then yet agian the windows saying the problem with the dll is still there so then i click on frozen-bubble.exe in the temp folder and then it runs (with the other frozen-bubble process running complaining about sdl) and then i close both and the nsis script finishes but and deletes the tmp dir but doesnt delete writetest.tmp (it installes itself to the $EXEDIR to check read only media) and so what im a doin wrong

PUSS (Portable Utility and Security Suite) 1.0 has been released. PUSS 1.0 is an amalgamated, upadated version of Sync, Backup and Secure by the Libertà Project.

This version should fix all of the bugs that I claimed it would here:

https://portableapps.com/node/2927

I hope you enjoy PUSS, please post any requests, bug etc below.

Well here it is , RC2. This version has a completely revamped interface, as well as a completely new encryption system (initially for Secure) and a VAST clean up of the code.

You can get it here:

www.sourceforge.net/projects/liberta

Please post any comments below, as well as bugs and feature requests.

Steve

P.S. Could someone do a comparison of the speed of the secure bit and any thing else that you might be using, thanks.

Surprise!!!

This is the first release of the new Libertà app, Portable Utility and Security Suite (PUSS for short). It contains all of the functionality of Sync and Backup as well as the never released Secure module. I haven't written the documentation yet but it should be coming early next week. Hopefully once it is mature I'll halt the individual bits, after one code base is easier than three.

Enjoy and please post any bugs below. You can get it from

www.sourceforge.net/projects/liberta

There are quite a few new feature such as a real sync mode that compares files modification times, a much speeded up backup part and a encryptor. Note at the moment the encryptor just copies the files to an encrypted archive but I'm looking to change that in the future.

This is probably one for John to answer.

Currectly U3 Offers a prototyper to convert an application into a u3p file. I noticed that John has released the 3 Mozilla apps as U3 apps so far, but wouldn't most of the applications here already conform to the U3 guidelines? I have been talking to the U3 consortium about the guidelines and so far I havn't found one that most of these apps do not meet. I would love to ee the same volume of applications here on portable apps up on software central on the U3 site. Just a thought, let me know what you guys think.

Hello everyone.

I just love this website and the amazing applications to be truely portable!
I am sure you will all agree with two hands up!!

Anyhow just a quick questions, does any one know when the planned release of the Portable Applications Suite v2 will be released.

Its been "Coming Soon" for some time now, and I'm just wondered if anyone could give me a heads up on its release.

Thanks for your time.
