Hi Sar3th! 21:29:20 Yeah, I remember you too :) 21:30:34 If anyone could help me just a little.. I'd be really grateful! 21:30:56 sure, thing, just fire your questions 21:31:14 This makes me feel sad but... I think that I need a step by step tut :( 21:31:20 What goes firts? 21:31:26 The installer or the launcher? 21:31:31 Or the NSIS? 21:31:32 the launcher 21:31:38 I just don't get it. 21:31:43 Ok. 21:31:53 first, you look at the program and check where it stores its data or what modifications to the system it makes 21:31:58 So, I have my VM so I won't have any false entry in the reg. 21:32:06 Ok, with the regshot. 21:32:09 I have that. 21:32:18 yes, for example with regshot 21:32:18 (Also my folders accord the PAF 2.0) 21:32:33 then you create your launcher which handles these modifications, i.e. reverses them or takes care if they already exist etc 21:32:50 Ok, I know where it stores files and what entries modify/create. 21:33:07 then you have two options: 21:33:13 1. use PAL 21:33:17 2. code a launcher yourself 21:33:26 Heheheh :P 21:33:37 I think I've pretty clear my choice 21:33:43 (the later one is more difficult, since you will need to actually understand NSIS and be able to program) 21:33:56 And I'm not able to... 21:34:11 which choice did you make? 21:34:21 The first one, with PAL. 21:34:24 Lol :P 21:34:35 okay good 21:34:47 did you download PAL already? 21:34:52 I'm on it. 21:35:05 I deleted it when closed the VM :( 21:35:21 okay. PAL /should/ come with a documentation which will tell you how to use and configure it properly 21:35:35 keep in mind that PAL needs NSIS Portable (Unicode) 21:35:57 Ok, everything I have is... 21:36:25 RegShot, PAI, PAL, NIS Edit Portable and the app installer. 21:36:29 Is that enough? 21:36:39 *** ZachThibeau is now known as ZachT|DnD 21:37:14 you will need NSIS Portable (Unicode) as well since PAL requires that 21:37:33 *Downloading it* 21:38:37 Ok, finally...

Awesome :) 21:56:54 They're allowed, but it's recommended that you not put spaces in the app directory - we prefer to use App\AppName rather than App\App name 21:57:11 Thought about chipping in earlier but you're doing well, sar3th :-) 21:57:18 But what happen if the spaces is in the name of the exe? 21:57:39 Can I change the name of it? 21:57:44 That's fine, that's the base app's decision. 21:57:57 Oh, all right. 21:58:07 Thanks for your help, Chris :) 21:59:22 topics/ and ref/launcher.ini/ are the two main places to get help with the launcher. General information is in topics/. I'd also recommend that you use the 2.1 manual which is generally better - features in 2.1 not in 2.0 are marked as such, too. http://portableapps.chrismorgan.info/launcher/manual 22:00:19 All right, let me start with the manual then :P Thanks. 22:03:44 An "off-topic" doubt about the PAL Chris... How "powerful" is it? I mean, hopefuly I'll be able to make PortableApps soon (thanks to you and sar3th of course), and the truth is I'd love try with a BIG app, something like Photoshop (I'm a designer), this isn't a reality of course, but I'd like to know if I can do it with the PAF (using PAL of course), what do you think? 22:05:09 (Just to be clear, of course I wouldn't redistribute it, I've my own license and all.) 22:08:28 *** BeckySanderlin`x has quit (Ping timeout: 252 seconds) 22:09:09 it is heavily dependant on the application, perhaps PAL would need to be amended to handle everything, but it should be accomplishable i think 22:10:24 *** BeckySanderlin`x (~quassel@c-98-252-21-200.hsd1.de.comcast.net) has joined #portableapps 22:11:26 Really?

I do really want to read it all (many times, I'm not getting everything for the first time :P). 22:33:05 Y3K: it's available in text form in the hg repository 22:33:34 hg? 22:33:41 http://portableapps.hg.sourceforge.net/hgweb/portableapps/launcher/ 22:34:30 So the text of the manual is in http://portableapps.hg.sourceforge.net/hgweb/portableapps/launcher/file/tip/Other/Source/Manual - if you download http://portableapps.hg.sourceforge.net/hgweb/portableapps/launcher/archive/tip.zip, it's in Other\Source\Manual 22:34:56 Or there's just the easy way which I briefly forgot: get 2.1 Beta 1 and it's built in there. 22:35:06 http://portableapps.com/node/25449 22:36:19 Awesome! Thank you again Chris :) 22:36:26 I see you like Python ;) 22:38:17 Naturally. 22:38:29 What exactly did you gather that from, though? 22:38:55 Eh... Sorry? I don't understand :( 22:39:28 What led you to believe I like Python? 22:39:57 Ah! I saw some .py documents in there (SF). 22:40:22 I don't see that format too often on the Internet, so I thought you like it. 22:41:49 conf.py and _ext/paldocs.py are just because I've used Sphinx for the documentation (potentially related to liking Python but not really - it's just the best system for it). topics/languages-table.py is the only "genuine" use of Python in the PAL manual. 22:42:19 What you should really find amusing is that Other\Source\make_release is a bash script. I build PAL releases on Linux. 22:43:04 Woah! Amazing. 22:43:27 Well, that's what made me thought you like python (and the clean of your code too). 22:43:45 :D 22:43:47 Well, nothing I could really understand too :( 22:43:49 Hehehe. 22:44:24 If I could have written PAL in Python, I almost certainly would have. The problem with that is the size of the runtime. 22:44:30 *** MaienM is now known as MaienM|Sleep 22:45:02 The size of the runtime... Do you mean a slower run? 22:45:20 no, the program python itself 22:45:25 it is quite large 22:45:28 No, I mean the fact that it'd require the Python runtime which is a couple of megabytes. 22:45:36 Ahhhhhh yes! 22:45:38 I got it :P 22:45:49 Windows, doesn't have it by default :( 22:45:58 *** TASAIRES (~TASAIRES@84.121.163.24.dyn.user.ono.com) has joined #portableapps 22:46:03 But it would work faster don't you think? 22:46:27 Personally, I'd preffer a 3mb heavier app if that means a faster app :D 22:47:24 Speed is entirely irrelevant with the launcher. It's fast enough. 22:47:49 Yes it is :P I just wanted to motivate you :P 22:48:26 You failed :-) 22:48:37 Haha, sorry about that :P 22:48:43 Y3K: NSIS compiles the launcher's code into a true executable, hence it is probably faster than python 22:49:23 Ooooh! Hell this is so amazing. You guys are gurus xD! 22:50:07 I'm not a programmer (that's more than obvious...), but I've many experience with a few languages, and Python is the most usual :P 22:53:36 sar3th: it doesn't, actually; it's much, much, /much/ slower than Python. It has a stub and then just includes all the instructions (as a sort of byte code) - the stub then just goes through that region interpreting the instructions one by one in a big case block... that's how it avoids being 'normously big by needing to include a genuine compiler. 22:54:31 I'm finally undersanding how it works... At the first, we need to know what changes the Base App does to the system, what files create and registry keys. Then we need the inctructions for the PAL, write all the code needed for the NSIS, and this one mades our AppPortable.exe 22:54:34 Am I right? 22:54:59 yes Y3K 22:55:17 ChrisMorgan: heh. guess it makes nsis to an interpreted language then 22:56:27 sar3th: indeed, with a byte code compiler. But its performance is really excruciatingly bad. Just for what it's normally used for, the performance is sufficient. 22:56:30 *** pa_9612 (d1e82d5c@gateway/web/freenode/ip.209.232.45.92) has joined #portableapps 22:56:44 hello 22:56:55 [...] for the PAL, which writes [...] and this one makes our [...] 22:57:17 *** pa_9612 has quit (Client Quit) 22:57:35 Y3K: only a few features in PAL are enabled at compile time; almost all you can edit launcher.ini and not need to regenerate the launcher - it reads the values at runtime. 22:58:10 Oh, all right :) 22:58:30 That's what I need (and will write), a step by step tutorial :P 23:00:21 Well, I'm with the theory right now, but I don't know yet when handle the files... The PAL will copy those from Pogram Files to App/AppName by itself when I run it or I need to move everything manually? Puting them in "AppName" "defaulData"? 23:02:15 You've got to do all that. 23:02:40 And remember you should *not* use App\AppName - that's for an app called App Name. Use App\Squiggle for Squiggle, etc. 23:02:55 Yes, I've that very clear :P 23:03:17 Ok, I'll promise you to write an awesome tut explaining all this ;) 23:03:45 That way you shouldn't repeat it again :P (I think I'm enough annoying for you) 23:05:05 I've started writing a step-by-step guide probably for inclusion in 2.1; if you wish to do one, that's great - having written PAL, I'm not the ideal documentation writer for it. 23:06:18 Ok, you can finish yours and I'd really enjoy to write a "remake" explaining it for less "high tech skilled" people xD 23:06:32 No, you write yours and email it to me this afternoon. 23:06:34 ;-) 23:06:49 I can't write it today ._. 23:07:04 Well, gotta go. 23:07:12 I'll be back to show you my progress :D 23:07:20 See ya, and thanks for everything. 23:08:18 Enjoy :-) 23:11:57 *** Y3K has quit (Ping timeout: 265 seconds) 23:12:03 bye Y3k 23:16:11 *** cheeky_monkey has quit (Quit: Leaving) 23:19:07 *** palogbot has quit (Ping timeout: 240 seconds) 23:19:25 *** palogbot (~palogbot@delawarepark.safesecureweb.com) has joined #portableapps 23:19:25 Topic for #portableapps is: Welcome to the PortableApps.com support channel.
