Portable App Development

what's the best way to pass a variable between different programs? I want NSIS to see which drives are HDD and not solid state and have it pass that information to my AutoIt program.

I sugest a start search like the one in the windows vista in the PortableApps Menu.

When we click on the tray icon, the menu shows and the cursor focus at a Editbox that allow write something to search a app name, in the list.

It is very simple and very usefull.

Furthermore, the menu can be activate by pressing a set of buttons. Like "[Windows] + P".

Thanks,

;===If DLL Not Found

I have been noticing that more and more people are getting their work accepted and posted here on this site. As a user only thank you for all of the developers and others who contribute in any way to this site.

It makes it look like a community. This is in no way taking anything from those who have started this site like John and others who I may not be aware of. It is just is real nice that others are becoming involved and following the tough guidelines that this site is known for.

I'm working on SuperTuxKart Portable (yes, PieterK is happy). To save space, I want the unTGZ plugin to extract the models and images folders (they're the biggest). But apparently it won't show any pics. I don't know if it's because it's extracting to the wrong directory, or anything else. My work so far is at:
http://nascent-project.org/digitxp/SuperTuxKartPortable.exe (or at least it should be)
Thanks!

can i get its first released version.......

One of the reasons that you can really fall in love with this site and it's programs are that they are (virtually) completely independent from the system files on whichever computer you are using, whether it is public or your own.

will the copyfiles command automatically overwrite if the same file name exists or do i have to add a switch or something to make it do that?

I think it's one of the best launchers ever because it's tiny,
simple, highly configurable, works with U3 drives and best,
it has built-in support for truecrypt-volumes .
However the dismount-function seems to be broken after truecrypt upgraded
to version 5x.
Any chance of a new version sometime or is the project officially dead ?
If it is :
Thank you for a great application, I like it so much that I might downgrade
