03:54:28 <wintallo> help!
03:54:28 <GizmoBot> wintallo: Welcome to the PortableApps.com official chatroom. Ask your question and someone should be able to help you shortly. If you still don't get an answer, try posting on the forums: http://portableapps.com/forums
03:56:17 <wintallo> I am using Toucan on my flash drive. When I create a sync jon and I choose my destination to be my entire flash drive, the copy is dependent on the drive letter of my flash drive. if I plug my flash drive into another computer and the drive letter of my flash drive changes, will the sync job still work?
03:59:54 <Computator> I don't know but if you wait someone else might know and answer
04:00:08 <Computator> :)
04:06:17 <OliverK> wintallo: you might be better off just making a post in the forums. The developer is very active there and most certainly will get back to you
04:06:30 <wintallo> OliverK, will do. Thanks!

10:03:31 <Abracadabra> hello
10:04:29 <Abracadabra> Are there portable compilers available ?
10:05:27 <Abracadabra> I am looking for any programming languages
10:05:38 <Abracadabra> the more the better
10:09:04 <ChrisMorgan> Abracadabra: most compilers are innately portable.
10:19:37 *** ChrisMorgan has quit (Quit: Leaving.)
10:19:54 *** ChrisMorgan (~ChrisMorg@unaffiliated/chrismorgan) has joined #portableapps
11:08:10 <ChrisMorgan> Abracadabra: did you have any compilers or languages in particular in mind?
11:48:38 <Abracadabra> ChrisMorgan: C/C++ for a start, but I would like to create a USB driveoriented to programming, so as many languages as possible
11:48:52 <ChrisMorgan> MinGW for C/C++.
11:49:25 <ChrisMorgan> But then the question is what sort of languages and what do you mean by "compiler" - Python, for example, doesn't have a compiler as such because it's an interpreted language. So you just have Python.
11:53:31 <Abracadabra> ChrisMorgan: for languages or scripts, same thing. For eg, Python, as you say, in order to launch python code, what would you need ? >>>>and can it be launched /installed portably on USB ?
11:53:57 <ChrisMorgan> Python runs fine from a USB disk. And as for running a Python file... "python file.py"
11:54:41 <Abracadabra> ok
11:57:42 <Abracadabra> so my question is this, where can I get a list of compilers and programs to cover a maximum number of languages, in a portable version so it can be put on USB. The idea is to have a programming environment available on the go .... some kind of universal USB portable programming languages environment

13:39:50 <theholycow> Hi...anybody alive in here this morning (or whatever time of day it is in your time zone)?
13:46:34 <ChrisMorgan> theholycow: sure
13:46:48 <ChrisMorgan> If you wish to ask a question, just ask it and if someone's around they may answer it.
13:47:02 <M4T1A5> Abracadabra: portable eclipse + portable mingw
13:47:11 <M4T1A5> = portable c++
13:47:21 <M4T1A5> or you could just use portable dev-c++
13:47:33 <theholycow> I'm looking to report something that may help...McAfee's SiteAdvisor gets a false positive on the 7-zip Portable download and I have instructions for fighting that...I just don't want to make the effort myself.
13:49:18 <theholycow> If you use a browser with SiteAdvisor installed, go to http://portableapps.com/apps/utilities/7-zip_portable and click the Download button, the download will get blocked; the program claims that the site has been reported to provide malware. I contacted McAfee support and here's what they told me:
13:49:34 *** sar3th|away is now known as sar3th
13:49:39 <theholycow> " In the latest SiteAdvisor version there is a new feature included which is Artemis Look up, When a User is downloading any file the files check sum is sent to Artemis server and verified if the file has malicious rating, If the file has any malicious detection in Artemis then this warning is shown to users. This feature covers the real-time detection of malicious files. If you suspect this to be a False Positive,
13:50:32 <theholycow> I went there but I was not interested in completing their process. I figured if I get a report to someone on the 7zip or PortableApps team, they may want to do something with it.
14:02:25 *** rainroom69 has quit (Quit: Leaving.)
14:30:03 <Abracadabra> M4T1A5: this is only for C/C++ right ? .... any others I could add for other languages ?
14:30:14 <M4T1A5> portable python

14:31:06 <M4T1A5> XAMPP for portable php webserver
14:31:12 <M4T1A5> and perl too
14:33:32 *** ChrisMorgan has quit (Ping timeout: 255 seconds)
14:34:58 <Abracadabra> what about java, pascal, delphi, cobol, to name just a few others ?
14:35:38 <sar3th> there is a netbeans/eclipse/JRE portable
14:35:50 <sar3th> as for pascal, i don't know, but you could look for lazarus

19:59:27 <ZachThibeau> just had to reboot into windows 7, was using ubuntu/wine to test previously
19:59:36 <pa_0820> actually 1.85 is a better version
19:59:47 <pa_0820> downloads are faster
20:01:59 <pa_0820> <+ZachThibeau>
20:02:37 <ZachThibeau> better to install portable apps at root level instead of on the desktop
20:03:07 <ZachThibeau> other wise you will have path issues like the one with utorrent we discovered :P
20:03:34 <pa_0820> how do u correct the path issues
20:04:41 <pa_0820> in the registry
