The future of Portable Apps Platform

To the programming author of this fine application I say what a great venture of possibilities you have enter into, and I would hope you would choose to pursue all facets of making this program a leader of all that shall soon follow, and trust me there are many on there way.

If so you now have the perfect window of opportunity to harness the vast users to a coming new age of software usage with your fine product and ingenuity.

I see a great move forward for this application since the first’s days back in 1999 with VMWare hitting the market.

Hello,

Almost a year ago I worked with the developer of an open source app to maker it easy to make a portable version. A while later I had the most recent version and finally went from test release to pre-release. The app was added to the "ready for release" page. When months crawled by with every now and then a new installer and launcher script I figured creating a new pre-release just to facilitate the updated installer/launcher scripts was not something I wanted to do, as it did work.

I looked at the post for making a portable app, but does that include being able to turn any app into a portable app just by using a launcher?

While looking through the forums I found an excellent program called format factory launcher. It seemed to take any old program an turned it into a PortableApp.

I want to develop some new portable apps by use your template. But it's difficult to draw the splash screen for my app.

Can you share the general & blank splash screen for me? I need it to add my app's icon and title on it.

Hey,

The StepMania team has released a new update to the software which includes a portable mode that writes all data to the install directory instead of my documents. I decided to try and create a PortableApps wrapper but when trying to compile the NSIS script, I get the following error:

Invalid command: FindProcDLL::FindProc
Error in script "C:\Documents and Settings\Karai\Desktop\StepManiaPortable\Other\Source\PortableApps.comInstaller.nsi" on line 610 -- aborting creation process

Me being new to making portable apps, i'm lost in the versioning system.

1) Whats the diffrence between Pre-release, Development Test, alpha, beta? (i know alpha comes first, then beta, but where do the first 2 fit in there?)
2) What do the numbers after pre-release and dev test mean (IE Dev Test 1)
3) What do the 4 diffrent numbers in the version mean? (All i know is first is major release, everything else is lost)

Well, the purpose of this header was originally for U3 launchers so I could delegate cleanup functions to a separate executable from the launcher, but perhaps it can be useful, so I thought I'd share here. For example, if you are performing cleanup functions from within the launcher (as per PAF), the AddFilesToCopy function is practically useless, as it just passes its parameters to CopyFiles, so it's redundant.

It seems like we'd be unable to rebuild CCleaner due to the license it has, but Piriform says all their software is already portable. So all we would have to do is build a launcher for it, right? I do remember there being an issue about recompiling Skype, but we still made a launcher. So if someone could help me figure out the legal status of CCleaner, I'd more than gladly compile it (and if Piriform lets us, Defraggler and Recuva as well). For reference, here's a copy of the license. Change CCleaner to Recuva or Defraggler and you have those licenses as well.
