How big is the file? 04:25:08 2.7mb 04:25:26 i have downloaded it a couple times 04:25:32 everytime with the same outcome 04:25:52 Which SourceForge mirror are you downloading from (it'll say in the upper right corner of the SF page) 04:26:10 GARR 04:26:33 Just downloaded it successfully here. 04:27:08 Is there anything that could be interfering with the download? Did you try clearing your browser's cache (otherwise it may just be pulling the incomplete download each time you select it)? Or you could try another mirror. 04:27:38 Try this: https://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/portableapps/PortableApps.com%20Platform%20Test/PortableApps.com%20Platform%202.0%20Beta%205/PortableApps.com_Platform_Setup_2.0_Beta_5.exe?r=&ts=1299644848&use_mirror=fastbull 04:28:05 (that's a direct link to Fastbull, also in Italy) 04:28:42 i got it off kent now. 04:28:48 It work properly? 04:28:53 seems to be fine. 04:28:56 yes thanks 04:28:58 Excellent. 04:29:30 Anything else we can help you with, Widget_? 04:30:09 do you make portable versions of paid for apps 04:31:02 i have one that may be of use to people. for keeping cpanel login, and doing an auto login. 04:31:18 We're debuting that progressively yes. We'll work with interested publishers. And nudge publishers of software our users are interested in. 04:31:20 i own the app rights 04:31:42 Is it already available? 04:31:57 well as an installable version but not portable 04:32:52 Yeah, that's what I mean, have a link to it? 04:33:54 http://www.webstyles.co.za/client/downloads/1/ 04:34:04 i just have to open it for you to get a copy. 04:34:52 Oh, is this free software? Free as in freeware... you give it away to your clients, etc? 04:35:15 yes. all my clients have access to it 04:35:35 Is it only for your clients... or can it be used with any hosting provider? 04:35:56 well anyone with a domain and cpanel should be able to use it. 04:36:43 Because as long as it's free (not charged for directly), you're free to use our launcher and installer and package it up for your clients and you can make it available directly on your site. 04:37:19 okay i will do that 04:37:38 do i just use the one on the downloads page? 04:37:58 To be listed in the app directory, it'd have to work with a wider userbase. That could be an interesting option for you. It would be more work to support, but you could have it be 'sponsored by Websytles" in the app to drive business. 04:38:23 The Development section has links to all the bits you need: the Format, The launcher and then the installer: http://portableapps.com/development 04:38:40 And you can ask questions and share INI configurations right in the development forum. 04:38:54 cool i will look at adding plesk support to it. 04:40:02 Nice. You can use other apps as guides as well if you're unsure of certain aspects like moving registry keys. The manual needs a bit of updating still. And we haven't released out all-in-one SDK yet that will help you build the app, document it and test it out. 04:40:47 So the Dev forum is a good place for questions. As is IRC if you just need a quick hint. And if you ever wind up really stuck, feel free to drop an email to the Development contact on our site and we'll get back to you. 04:41:00 thanks 04:42:05 Sure thing. Heck, if it takes off, doing a branded USB drive with the software and some additional utilities with your branding as either a promotional deal or as part of the paid accounts of specific levels and above could be a possible way to advertise or increase income, too. 04:44:01 Thanks i will look at that, there was a new version we were working on a while back with a few more features. 04:44:35 *** agdurrette is now known as agdurrette|away 04:45:17 Thnaks for checking out the site guys 04:45:18 Sounds good. Well, whichever way you go, let us know at the Developers address. Hopefully we can turn it into something successful for you. 04:45:25 Sure thing, Widget_ 04:45:28 Thank you 04:45:36 Goodnight (or morning or afternoon) 04:45:53 just saw people going onto the site now. its mornign here but goodnight to you 04:46:28 Yeah, 11:45pm here.

It's a vertical space shooter, but that doesn't make it Galaxian. 20:47:22 Heck, part of the game is to crash into ships using powerups to ensure they don't get past you. 20:47:44 Galaxian was simply the first game of that kind for me 20:48:21 In 2002, I owned a used NES for a short time (after which it died) 20:48:32 Ah. I never really played it growing up. But I did play many other scrolling space shooters (both vertical and horizontal) with lots of different gameplay styles. I had a Commodore 64 :) 20:49:25 C64... I didn't manage the emulator to run 20:49:43 so never played any c64 games even in emulation 20:49:59 I never really did emulators of it. I grew up with an actual one. Originally with a black and white TV and a cassette storage drive. 20:50:12 And I walked to school in the snow uphill in both directions. And we liked it. 20:50:36 BTW - For the curious, today's release makes 99 apps in 99 days. 20:51:05 C64 with gs TV... :( 20:51:22 gs TV is a complete offload, should I say 20:51:55 JohnTHaller: Neat 20:52:08 going for 100? 20:52:19 *** FredM (~MMALARZ@p50850A37.dip0.t-ipconnect.de) has joined #portableapps 20:52:45 At least 100.

Anyone in here who wants to compare lists??? ;) 21:04:24 lol 21:05:25 http://portableapps.com/news/new 21:05:41 3 pages of new apps (75) and one page of all but one from December 1 on. 21:28:47 *** ChrisMorgan (~ChrisMorg@unaffiliated/chrismorgan) has joined #portableapps 21:32:38 hi chris 21:35:51 *** benedikt93 has quit (Quit: Read the fucking binary.) 21:38:01 *** Cael has quit (Quit: Page closed) 21:39:04 MWW water stage - too difficult 21:45:18 ok, let's count. 21:45:19 WPP - menu derived off ASuite, wrapper platform - unknown to me. 21:45:19 PAC - NSIS-centric. 21:45:19 WPP - cluttered, but more compact. 21:45:19 PAC - although less compact (repeated libraries), can auto-update. 21:45:19 WPP - keyboard support in menu. 21:45:19 PAC - cooler menu design. 21:45:20 WPP menu seems to win, but it's a tie for wrappers 21:46:42 for ones with 1gb pen-drives, WPP is recommended if they use many tools with dependencies - GTK, Qt, ... 21:47:22 Else, PAF is strongly recommended for easier uninstallation, auto-update, ... 21:48:59 GNight everybody! Have a nice day/night/whatever in between :) 21:49:13 pac platform came about as a means of wrapping Firefox for portability. IDK what WPP's original purpose was. 21:49:45 Good night, Simeon. Wish you not see computers (especially, BSOD's) in your dreams. 21:52:34 Im on linux: No BSOD here ;) 21:52:38 *** gluxon (~gluxon@c-71-234-105-104.hsd1.ct.comcast.net) has joined #portableapps 21:52:43 JTH: What has more market share: PAC or WPP? 21:53:34 Black screen of death exists on Linux 21:53:51 *** agdurrette is now known as agdurrette|away 21:54:52 WPP? 21:55:03 Winpenpack.com 21:55:26 Apps wrapped with WPP are referred to as x- 21:55:52 *** Simeon has quit (Quit: Page closed) 22:02:44 CruelC: I'd nearly guarantee that PA.c has more market share for sure. 22:03:17 CruelC: PortableApps.com is the standard with the largest market share (even more than U3, I believe). winPenPack is just one of the smaller ones. 22:05:00 not to mention a few of the files I"ve tried to download from WPP don't even have an installer. 22:05:07 you have manual work to make it portable 22:05:46 *** agdurrette|away is now known as agdurrette 22:06:23 We have more market share than all other portable packages combined (including U3), if anyone is curious. 22:06:47 *** gluxon has quit (Read error: Connection reset by peer) 22:07:47 Gizmokid2005: :( you either simply "extract to subfolder" or install with menu (latter recommended, as it compacts the things up). 22:08:03 CruelC: http://www.winpenpack.com/en/download.php?view.152 22:08:05 *** gluxon (~gluxon@c-71-234-105-104.hsd1.ct.comcast.net) has joined #portableapps 22:08:13 or you run through this list of 5 steps to make it portable and mess up the host machine... 22:08:39 oh, messy steps... 22:08:50 yes. 22:09:17 NONE of our apps are like that..even xampp (last i knew) only required that you extract the xampp zip download to the root of your drive, install the launcher like a normal app and you're done. 22:09:48 XAMPP is an odd special exception. It's not really a PA.c app. The launcher is just to add an easy shortcut to the PA.c Menu. 22:10:19 right 22:10:25 We have a signed licensing agreement with Opera to do Opera Portable Edition, which is why we can legally include it. 22:10:26 but that's my point 22:10:42 all our stuff is install and go 22:11:22 oh, xampp no longer has Xampp lite 22:11:34 Yeah, I need to update the page. 22:11:44 Their stuff, to be "installed", has you to own a "menu" first 22:12:17 CruelC: which, honestly, doesn't make sense. You should be able to "install" the apps with an installer without needing a menu 22:12:25 You can unzip them to a folder in the PortableApps folder (AppNamePortable, for example) and they'll work with the PA.c Platform if you're so inclined. 22:13:41 WPP is messy, and uninstallation from that "menu" is a m3ss 22:15:08 with PAC, you simply right-click the unwanted app in the menu, select "uninstall" or delete the folder. 22:15:40 so, WPP is an offload. 22:16:04 If you're curious, head here: http://www.alexa.com/siteinfo/portableapps.com and then enter winpenpack.com in the "Compare PA.c to:" section and click Compare. 22:18:08 not bad JohnTHaller, nearly 2% of the portableapps traffic is to the start page 22:18:57 And we're consistently in the top 5000 websites worldwide or right on the border of it (currently 5,322 as it varies daily/weekly) 22:20:08 Hmm, actually we're at 3,436 for yesterday. 22:21:02 WPP lags in 189.8k'th place 22:21:10 in 3-month rank 22:22:14 now I see that WPP is an offload, with only advantage being a that it's a bit more compact by not repeating XUL, GTK, Qt, ... 22:22:36 a lot of those you can't avoid.. 22:22:51 especially with version dependencies by so many apps, and directory/location requirements... 22:23:48 yea... but WPP tries to compact it all, messing itself in process. 22:24:04 WinPoopPack. 22:25:48 U3 has too much unsupported tricks, that's why it's that low. Haven't tried it myself. But WPP is sluggish. 22:26:09 U3 has been officially dead for years... 22:26:51 yikes 22:28:17 17 days since gPodder 2.13 came out and its still not built for windows :( 22:29:05 Happens quite a bit with some apps. Not a big deal unless you're version OCD 22:29:06 | | "| 22:29:07 | | "| 22:29:07 |_| _| 22:29:24 Yeah U3 only came to about 10% of our downloads at its height. 22:30:07 U3 just sucks 22:30:12 It's slow and annoying 22:32:09 L O <10 more> A <10 more> D <10 more> I <10 more> N <10 more> G Welcome to U3. 22:33:07 like that? 22:34:54 60 years to show the whole "LOADING" word, and overall 90 years to load. LOL 22:35:45 if U3 is THAT slow, no wonder it didn't hit much. 22:37:29 *** CruelC has parted #portableapps (None) 22:45:17 *** mrmcpowned_ (~meh@adsl-153-122-50.mia.bellsouth.net) has joined #portableapps 22:45:47 *** mrmcpowned has quit (Disconnected by services) 22:45:52 *** mrmcpowned_ is now known as mrmcpowned 22:45:54 *** mrmcpowned has quit (Changing host) 22:45:54 *** mrmcpowned (~meh@unaffiliated/sh-chris) has joined #portableapps 23:07:21 *** mrmcpowned_ (~meh@adsl-225-15-170.mia.bellsouth.net) has joined #portableapps 23:08:56 *** mrmcpowned has quit (Ping timeout: 260 seconds) 23:09:10 *** mrmcpowned_ is now known as mrmcpowned 23:09:40 *** mrmcpowned is now known as Guest6099 23:13:20 *** FredM has quit (Quit: Leaving.) 23:18:58 *** Twinkie_ (d0733bad@gateway/web/freenode/ip.208.115.59.173) has joined #portableapps 23:19:04 Hello 23:19:14 *** DannyMuniz (~Kiriko@c-76-119-69-200.hsd1.ma.comcast.net) has joined #portableapps 23:19:14 *** DannyMuniz has quit (Changing host) 23:19:14 *** DannyMuniz (~Kiriko@unaffiliated/kiriko) has joined #portableapps 23:19:20 Is there any word when the lastest Firefox version RC1 will come out? 23:22:05 As a portable apps installation. It has already been released by Mozilla. 23:24:55 I do like that PortableApps included an IRC channel in their support page, but there is a distinction between IRC Chat and Support Chat. 23:25:09 Mainly, there has to be active supporters online ready to respond. 23:25:25 I don't think this is the case here... so it should be made clear. 23:25:32 irc is chat 23:26:19 sorry about that 23:26:42 No problem, I don't expect it of course. I am not a paying customer =) 23:26:48 Just a point to be made. 23:27:15 Most IRC chats, you wait for hours before someone talks. 23:27:18 JohnTHaller: is the person who does firefox 23:27:54 Thanks agdurrette, I will wait for him to come on. 23:28:24 Twinkie_: if there's someone around who can answer it they'll tend to before long.
