Just stumbled across PortableApps and trying to make a freeware screenshot program portable (uses .INI files in app dir), but all the info on the web site is just overwhelming.

I already read the "Guerilla Guide" but can't find how (and if) to move .INI files. So I basically have a "portable" app that expects its INI wherever the EXE is – I must still move the INI into Data/settings? 12:28:11 yep 12:28:19 *** pa_4158 has quit (Client Quit) 12:28:53 Notepad++ Portable Moves files and then adjusts them so that any open files from your flash drive will now open on your new host. 12:29:15 looks like notepad++ has to move files too, so I guess it's launcher would be a decent place to start 12:29:53 Yeah, I thought I should get deeper into that one … it’s just a little much for starters ;-) 12:30:35 (Especially since the app already runs fine from a stick – but perfectionist that I am I want to have it in PA format …) 12:30:41 yeah, it can be a little overwhelming at first 12:31:52 So basically, the INI that has to be next to the EXE while running needs to be copied there first and copied back after run, right? In order to keep a clean structure and make backing up things more easy? 12:32:54 yep 12:33:13 also, when reinstalling an app the data directory remains safe 12:33:25 so otherwise people would lose their settings at each update 12:34:01 Ah ok. Re packaging – is there a difference between freeware (as this one is) and open source? I remember reading that I’m only allowed to do a "launcher" instead of a paf.exe? 12:34:47 that depends on the license of the app 12:35:06 generally speaking you can freely distrubute OSS apps, but not so much for freeware 12:35:19 *** BjornH has quit (Read error: Connection reset by peer) 12:35:20 Hm, it’s a German-language app and the site only states "freeware, at no cost". 12:35:37 well the thing is, are you allowed to redistribute it freely? 12:35:47 if so, a normal app is fine 12:35:52 if not, launcher-only it is 12:36:05 with an option to make the installer download the app from the site, if possible 12:37:23 What exactly would be the difference between a "launcher" and the paf.exe? I didn’t really catch the difference (yet). 12:37:51 Sorry for all those beginner’s questions … hope I don’t take too much of your time … 12:38:19 The option to have the user download from the site sounds great, though. 12:39:37 Would there be a good example app that has a launcher+download option for me to check into?
