Portable Java Apps

Submitted by Anonymous (not verified) on December 9, 2005 - 5:44pm

I use several Java-executable apps on my USB thumb-drive. These should not require additional development (but this seemed the best forum anyway Wink

PLCash.jar - a personal finance program
JTides.jar - a tides calculator
SatFinder.jar - a satellite finder (for television, hams, etc)

All the above can be found at http://www.arachnoid.com. Be sure to read the developer's statement about what he calls "CareWare".

Flash Drive Root Shortcuts\Batch Files

Submitted by Anonymous (not verified) on December 9, 2005 - 12:17pm

This may sound rather simple and unimportant, but I have been trying to figure out a way to create a shortcut on the root of the drive, to my portable apps execution files within thier respective folders. I have been able to create batch files that work, but I would like to assign icons to the "shortcuts" so they are more easily distinguished from one another. Any thoughts?
