I have a USB flash memory stick with PortableApps on it for those occasions when I visit unenlightened clients (i.e. they bought the Microsoft marketing pitch). The system appears to work well despite it's imaturity as a product. There had been a significant time delay between release of their menu manager and updates to major components. But this seems to have been resolved with the addition of other developers to the team. > Perhaps Crosswire should start a separate project for a Portable Apps > version of the most suitable Sword FrontEnd, whether SwordReader or not. PortableApps only accept open source applications into their archive. This excludes free products that are similar to Sword because they are not open source. Wouldn't prevent the other products from developing and hosting their own PortableApps executable but they can't get the PA imprimatur. I am unable help with any PortableApps development because my home network is UNIX-based either Linux or Mac OS X. The NSIS tools are all Windoze based and I would rather not give disk real estate or processor cycles to emulators just to host NSIS development. Not enough desire to do this to re-port LyX and its support tools; these are critical to my work and the current PA LyX set does not work.
