Portable App Development

For my first PortableApp I thought I'd choose something simple, so I chose a program that calculates the motion of a projectile (thanks to Havvy for suggesting this). Here's the description of the program according to SourceForge: "Projectile motion is a GUI based program that calculates various parameters of projectile motion based on initial velocity and height. It also plots the path of the projectile and can also find the location (x,y) as a function of time and vice versa."

You can find out more about this program here: http://sourceforge.net/projects/projectilecalc/

I am trying to update the installer for my ImgBurn Portable launcher and such but I am having trouble.

Here is my NSIS file

PortableApps.comInstaller.nsi

Here is my program

ImgBurn_Portable_2.4.1.0_Dev_Test_5.paf.exe

The latest PortableApps.com Installer can be found here:
https://portableapps.com/node/14939

The most recent version of the PortableApps.com Installer is 0.9.9.11. It was introduced on August 5, 2008.

I am trying to pafify Dropcloth portable version but every time I run the launcher it saves the settings where the launcher is. Am I doing something wrong?

Please excuse my ignorance. I have read the portable apps guides and modified the sumatra app to make my portable app.

I was not sure where to place the applauncher nsi so I put it at the same level as the "app", "data" and "other" folders. In the App folder I have placed \App\AppInfo\appicon.ico. The NSIS compiler produced the following error:

Icon: "..\..\App\AppInfo\appicon.ico"
Error while loading icon from "..\..\App\AppInfo\appicon.ico": can't open file

Do I need to locate the NSI file elsewhere for it to be recognised?

I ran into this issue when trying to install the OpenOffice.org Portable 2.4.1 release. This issue affects not only OOoP but OOoP is the biggest application. So it's the first one where you run into this problem.

Now it's time for a zodiac sign theme.
I've used the signs name, polarity, element, planet, symbol, date and favorite color.
But there are many different informations, can't swear that everything is correct.

Greetings, MrE (The Scorpio King)

Hello Mr or Miss now i used portable app and i want to install application that have extension (.exe) but not support. How do i install it? Thank u!

Hi, I have downloaded a version of PAM on http://portableapps.xrx.ca/
which has more options.
I saw that the logo is slightly different from the original one.
I want to know if it's possible to change the logo easily or
we need to recompile the source code of PAM.
I have a look of the code, absolutely no idea what language it uses.
I saw in the other post, that it's written in Delphi, is it right?

Thanks

This program changes your wallpaper to a bitmap. It is useful if you have it start up every time you plugin your flash drive.

Command line:
Change.exe (filename) OR /back
(filename) = A filename of a file to set your background to.
/back = Sets the background to what it was before you changed it last.

To have it start up every time you plugin your flash drive, you can use my other program USBStart (https://portableapps.com/node/14315).
1. Download "Change.exe" and place it in PortableApps\WallpaperChanger\App.
2. Add this to before #EJECT in your Autostart.ini file:
