Portable App Development

Hi All
Sorry if this should be somewhere else and I missed it. I have some thoughts or requests on this.

First, John's launcher is nice looking and fast! Thanks for your hard work on it!

Second, the beta fixes the dpi issues just fine, but when I use it on my tablet, the menu is partially off screen... I'm hoping the new version allows for some customization of size? My tablet is a Q1 and so the issue is its screen size (non-standard) and not the menu app itself.

Third, I read you will be able to choose which app exes you see, but I'm really hoping for shortcut support. Perfect example -I use a tiddlywiki as a task organizer I would love to run it with portable Firefox, but the only easy way to do this is with a shortcut or batch file, and the tiddlywiki file, being an html file, can not be put on the menu at all.

See, it's the school holidays and I have nothing to do!
I currently have two choices:

Installing plugins in Gaim Portable can be a pain. First you have to install a version of gaim (not a beta) onto a windows machine, then install the plugins, and then copy the plugins over to your portable version on your usb drive.

For anyone interested in a simple portable file splitter-

I have created a new portable version of Gnumeric (Gnumeric is a spreadsheet, a computer program used to manipulate and analyze numeric data). This is the stable branch of 1.6.

Features:

• Directory structure is compatible to portableapps.com
• Uses installed settings
• Fancy splash-screen

The selfextracting archive can be downloaded from its current location.

The download link (14.8 MB):

Hi, I Downloaded the Standard Suite v1.0 for Windows, English 89.5MB

When running on a screen size of 1600 x 1200 I get this.

Image Link does not show. Click me.

Please help.

Thanks.

Windows XP SP2B
1Gb USB 2.0

the menu should hav an option to eject your drive

I use other programs apart from the ones hosted on this site. Although they are not truly portable, on the whole they seem to run okay when installed onto my USB drive.

I would like to add shortcuts to these programs to the Portable Apps Menu - rather than navigating to the application folder using explorer, and then clicking on the .exe file.

What do you think?

Thanks

James
