Portable App Development

Is there any chance to develop a version in Spanish Language?

I'm willing to help with translations if necesary.

I didn't find a mention of this so here it is.

For those of us using Adium on Mac, you can make the program a portable app by editing a few lines in the application bundle.

UPDATE: Skype Portable has been released!

Over on the Request Apps Forum, a question quickly led to a discussion about crafting a Portable version of Skype. Being careful to not modify things to the point of violating the user agreement, why don't we try to iron out a solution on this forum?

I would like to present my launcher: ASuite 1.0. ASuite 1.0 is a simple and light launcher with 15 software (total size 8MB approximately) included.

However new version of ASuite is in work in progress.

Can you make a launcher detects all portable programs (from PortableApps.com) and lists it? That would be easier and would be used in future projects?

And can you tell me what kind of programming language and tools do you use. I know some PHP but making programs will be cool too
Maybe I make the launcher :cool:

hey here is an idea i just got:

many archive programs like winrar allow for extracting from the command line instead of a GUI. maybe a good way to save space would be to compress all programs with such a program then have executables that would just say which files to extract and then open the main program + assosiated files. that would save a lot of space if you could compress programs like portable firefox and only unpackem when you needed to (do understand that it would take longer to open up apps). does that sound like a good idea or should i put my mind to other stuff?

The title says it all. While changing my PFF context menu in firefox\chrome\browser.jar I noticed the JAR wasn't compressed. It dropped from 1.101KB to 337KB after zipping.
So is there a disadvantage to compressing them all?
BTW I store PortableFirefox on a HDD-based MP-3Player. Does this count as "IPod or MP3-Player" or as "Portable Harddrive" in my Account-settings?

New idea It seems I'm going to annoy you more

A program for backing up configuration files (bookmarks, extensions) of Thunderbird, Firefox, etc. will be really great. Plus, update function will be good too.

Good or bad idea???

I have a problem about suites. I only have 2 choices and it's not enough. I need Firefox, Thunderbird, NVU, Sunbird, FileZilla, Gaim and PStart but there isn't any suite contains that files.

So I said "a suit maker would be great!"
I am using PHP for 1 year. There is a gz library which allows to zip and unzip .gz files. By using that library we can create a suite maker page.

Hi,
i'd like to ask, "How do i submit some patch for Portable Firefox?". i've written some patch to fix the problem of Chinese BIG5 Character, a kind of NON-ASCII Character. i'd like to submit it. How do i do that? Thanks.
