09:39:44 <ChrisMorgan> Ha! You failed!
09:39:46 <ChrisMorgan> Wrong time :-)

09:39:48 <GizmoBot> Sun, 09 Aug 2009 19:50:48 AEST
09:39:59 <Chazz> it's late afternoon :P
09:40:22 <ChrisMorgan> Not a hope - dark for hours mid-winter
09:40:56 <Chazz> oh ya, it's winter down there :/
09:43:09 <Chazz> so, how cold does it get down there?
09:43:52 <ChrisMorgan> Here in Melbourne only down to about four degrees Centigrade at the coldest.
09:44:04 <Chazz> Lucky!
09:44:16 <ChrisMorgan> .calc 32+4*5/9
09:44:17 <GizmoBot> 32+4*5/9 = 308/9 (approx. 34.22222222222222)
09:44:37 <Chazz> C to F conversion?
09:45:06 <ChrisMorgan> yes
09:45:13 <Chazz> oh...
09:45:21 <Chazz> wow it's warm down there...
09:45:39 <ChrisMorgan> More normally it's 10-15 degrees
09:45:54 <ChrisMorgan> 50-60 F
09:45:58 <Chazz> oh :/
09:46:38 <Chazz> it's summer where i am and I'm still around the 60F range
09:46:39 <ChrisMorgan> In Beechworth where I was for the weekend, it got down to about -3 or so

09:48:27 <ChrisMorgan> Hey andreasma
09:48:28 <Chazz> Can us USA'ians borrow some of the heat when it's our winter Chris? :P
09:48:32 <Chazz> Hey andreasma
09:49:18 <ChrisMorgan> Maybe you'd like to borrow a day of 47 we had February this year (fuelled by lots of bushfires around the countryside)?
09:49:26 <ChrisMorgan> .calc 32+5*47/9
09:49:27 <GizmoBot> 32+5*47/9 = 523/9 (approx. 58.111111111111114)
09:49:27 <andreasma> hi Chazz ChrisMorgan
09:49:42 <Chazz> during our winter, we'd love it
09:49:55 <ChrisMorgan> Wait, I'm getting it the wrong way around.
09:49:56 <ChrisMorgan> .calc 32+47/5*9
09:49:57 <GizmoBot> 32+47/5*9 = 583/5 (exactly 116.6)
09:50:01 <ChrisMorgan> That's better
09:50:07 <Chazz> oh... :/
09:50:20 <Chazz> that was in Febuary!?!
09:50:42 <ChrisMorgan> Yes. Towards the end of summer
09:50:52 <Chazz> wow...
09:50:57 <ChrisMorgan> "Black Saturday" it's been dubbed
09:51:49 <Chazz> oh... yikes...

17:05:17 <Chazz> ohai ptmb
17:05:35 <ptmb> Hello everybody! Hello Chazz!
17:05:44 <jnw222> hello [tmb
17:05:50 <jnw222> ptmb sorry
17:05:52 <Chazz> Oh, ptmb, u use Linux, right?
17:05:59 <ptmb> yes
17:06:23 <Chazz> do you perhaps use the Bash shell?
17:06:49 <ptmb> you mean using the command line? sometimes, but only very basic operations
17:06:54 <jnw222> most linux users use the bash shell i would think
17:07:19 <ptmb> and I can only make very very basic scripts (made to launch a program with certain parameters :P )
17:07:25 <Chazz> jnw222, most Ubuntu derivetives do, but many others use a different shell :P
17:07:31 <Chazz> erm :)
17:07:34 <ptmb> oh
17:07:41 <ptmb> most us an sh sheel or bash sheel
17:07:41 <Chazz> ptmb, thats more than i can do :P
17:07:52 <Chazz> s/us/use
17:07:56 <Chazz> s/sheel/shell
17:07:59 <ptmb> I am using ubuntu, and I think it uses a bash shell
17:08:11 <Chazz> ptmb, ya, ubuntu uses Bash
17:08:13 <jnw222> my point. most people use debian or ubuntu (or derivatives)
17:08:25 <Chazz> lol, good point jnw222
17:08:30 <jnw222> yep
17:10:22 <Chazz> jnw222, do u use normal bash?
17:10:46 <jnw222> yeah bash version 4.0.24
17:11:37 <Chazz> awesome!
17:12:07 <Chazz> Could u perhaps see if the bash portable is almost as normal as the normal bash? :)
17:13:23 <jnw222> that is what bash --version says
17:13:23 <jnw222> syanptic reports bash 4.0-3
17:13:23 <jnw222> bash portable won't start in wine
17:13:42 <Chazz> oh, no? :/

17:15:16 <Chazz> Hey Gizmokid2005 :)

17:15:34 <jnw222> on wine version 1.1.26
17:15:37 <Chazz> jnw222, ya, i think that uses the local CMD.exe tho...
17:16:04 <Chazz> Gizmokid2005, u know if CLI's work in WINE?
17:16:11 <Gizmokid2005> no clue
17:16:23 <Chazz> hmm...
17:16:42 <Chazz> is an official PApp required to be able to work in WINE?

17:18:59 <jnw222> though if you click on BashPortable/App/Bash/usr/local/wbin/win-bash.exe you get a bash shell
17:19:18 <Chazz> jnw222, so, the actuall exe works, but the launcher doesnt?
17:19:39 <Chazz> (Bah! Once again, NSIS hates win-bash :/ )
17:20:07 <Gizmokid2005> w00t! SBP has 112 downloads of DT3 :D
17:20:14 <jnw222> BashPortable/App/Bash/bin/sh.exe doesnt work (though i dont know what that is for)
17:20:15 <Chazz> wow!
17:20:49 <Chazz> jnw222, thats there basically only for the make feature, which is programmed to use sh instead of bash :/
17:21:40 * Chazz isnt even sure if sh.exe still works :P
17:22:03 <Chazz> u think i shld hake a second exe and stuff for sh?
17:22:08 <Chazz> erm, second launcher
17:22:23 <Chazz> which wouldn't help for make, but then u could run sh :P
17:22:27 * jnw222 is trying wine BashPortable.exe (the nsis launcher) and post the output
17:22:56 <Chazz> thnx :/
17:23:22 <jnw222> i get this
17:23:34 <jnw222> sh-4.0$ wine BashPortable.exe (pressed enter)
17:23:34 <jnw222> sh-4.0$ bash$ exit
17:23:40 <Chazz> :/
17:23:45 <Chazz> ok, well
17:23:47 <jnw222> looks like it quits itself
17:24:02 <Chazz> ya...
17:24:03 <jnw222> probally confusion from localy installed linux bash
17:24:09 <Chazz> might be...
17:24:45 <Chazz> hmm... odd
17:25:38 <jnw222> how did you make this bash portable
17:25:42 <jnw222> ?
17:27:04 <Chazz> jnw222, i took a stand-alone copy of win-bash ( http://win-bash.sourceforge.net i think) added i think it was called upextools or something like that, and wrote a launcher that basically says launch file and close installer :P

18:03:11 <Gizmokid2005> TightVNC portable was a DT in the forums somewhere
18:03:19 <Gizmokid2005> it doesn't save settings...I thought about picking it up though
18:03:20 <Gizmokid2005> it works good.

18:07:37 <pa_5918> anyone know how to have an app that i made in VB 2008 converted so that it will work with the portableapps format?
18:07:48 <pa_5918> i have tried many things
18:07:55 <pa_5918> but i keep failing... :\
18:08:16 <Gizmokid2005> pa_5918: you really can't
18:08:24 <Gizmokid2005> VB apps require .net, so it'll never be portable
18:08:29 <Gizmokid2005> you'll have to write it in a different language.
18:08:40 <pa_5918> what do you suggest?
18:08:49 <jnw222> C++
18:09:05 <Gizmokid2005> pa_5918: that's probably the best, C++
18:09:06 <ZachThibeau> VB 2008 requires .net framework which yeah what Gizmokid2005 said can't be made portable since not every computer will use it, I suggest trying something like C++, or even a language called FreeBASIC (freebasic.net iirc)
18:09:36 <ZachThibeau> and freebasic is Operating system portable but still a basic like language :)
18:09:39 <pa_5918> so c++ it is, where do i start with that?
18:10:29 <ZachThibeau> from the very basic tutorial called hello world and move on with that :) here is a good start http://www.winprog.org/tutorial/
18:10:43 <ZachThibeau> it's C not C++ but C code can be compiled in a C++ compiler
18:12:09 <pa_5918> right so the c++ compiler from microsoft is similar to what i have already been using?
18:13:29 <pa_5918> once my app has been rebuilt in visual c++ it should be simple to make it conform to the portableapps format?
18:13:36 <pa_5918> using the guide from the website

18:24:10 <pa_5918> ahh cool
18:24:26 <pa_5918> im 15
18:24:41 <pa_5918> but the only apps i have designed thus far are for use at my school
18:24:52 <pa_5918> they allow everyone to play games
18:25:03 <pa_5918> without my school admins knowing which website to block
18:25:22 <pa_5918> but now i need to make it portable
18:25:27 <pa_5918> so it can run from a usb
18:27:50 <pa_5918> oh btw
18:28:20 <pa_5918> will the code from VB work in c++
18:28:25 <pa_5918> ?
18:34:39 <ZachThibeau> nope
18:34:53 <ZachThibeau> you will need to rewrite it to work with c++ standard
18:35:00 <ZachThibeau> basically you need to make classes etc
18:36:52 <pa_5918> i made classes in VB
18:37:06 <pa_5918> but i guess it will be trial and error all over again
18:37:07 <ZachThibeau> still it won't be compatible
18:37:18 <ZachThibeau> classes in vb aren't the same as classes in c++
18:37:23 <pa_5918> a whole re-write then
18:37:32 <ZachThibeau> pretty much yes
18:37:40 <pa_5918> ah great
18:40:36 <pa_5918> well thanks for your help anyway!

19:45:53 <pa_6867> hi everyone
19:46:03 <pa_6867> I need some help here
19:46:15 <pa_6867> I got portableapps.com into my pen-drive
19:46:31 <pa_6867> and I would like to protect my device with a password, you know?
19:46:37 <pa_6867> how can I get it?
19:47:23 <pa_6867> is anyone there?
19:47:49 <pa_6867> Mir
19:47:54 <pa_6867> kaeos
19:48:00 <Mir> WHAT
19:48:11 <pa_6867> can you help me please?
19:48:14 <jnw222> sadly, password protection is tough (would require encryption
19:48:38 <jnw222> portableapps's menu doesnt have options for that
19:48:49 <Mir> password protection is only good on thumb drives meant for security
19:48:54 <Mir> like Iron Key
19:49:04 <Mir> or Jump Drive Secure II
19:49:18 <jnw222> forgot about that
19:49:20 <Mir> otherwise its a waste of any time and effort
19:49:33 <pa_6867> I understand ...
19:49:35 <Mir> because one quick format and BOOM
19:49:41 <Mir> there goes your security
19:49:56 <jnw222> and from what i've heard it stresses out flash memory, wearing it out fast
19:50:03 <pa_6867> do you know any solution for that , just like the U3?
19:50:29 <ZachThibeau> U3's security is a joke
19:50:34 * Mir points to Iron Key
19:50:35 <jnw222> lol
19:50:37 <jnw222> yep
19:50:40 <pa_6867> yes....
19:50:45 * jnw222 points to IronKey
19:50:46 <pa_6867> I know that ...
19:50:55 <Mir> 256 bit AES hardware security encryption
19:50:58 <pa_6867> But I'd like sometnihg just like that
19:51:13 <Mir> then get the Jump Drive Secure II
19:51:17 <Mir> much cheaper
19:51:28 <ZachThibeau> it probably won't be around yet but maybe soon in the future
19:51:29 <pa_6867> Is there any free software?
19:51:39 <jnw222> or truecrypt (software encryption) but that would require truecrypt installed somewhere else
19:51:43 <Mir> its hardware based
19:51:54 <Mir> not software based that you are asking for
19:52:03 <ZachThibeau> any of the free security apps will require adminstrative privlidges thus making it not work on guest accounts
19:52:04 <Mir> software is insecure
19:52:11 <Mir> take windows for an example
19:52:52 <pa_6867> I got it and you're right
19:53:01 <pa_6867> but I just want some simple solution ....
19:53:15 <pa_6867> just to make it a bit hard to see my files .....
19:53:35 <pa_6867> it's not necessary an encryption password or something like thar
19:53:54 <Mir> ZIP it
19:54:00 <pa_6867> there's nothing highly confidential in my USB drive
19:54:06 <Mir> use 7zip and encrypt the zip file
19:55:05 <pa_6867> And I would like to use it with portableapps.com ... I need to install it for my girlfriend.... it must be an extremelly simple solution
19:55:18 <pa_6867> that's why I thought something like U3
19:55:40 <pa_6867> simple and functional for end-isers
19:55:40 * Mir points to 7zip
19:55:45 <pa_6867> users*
19:55:46 * Mir points to 7zip agian
19:56:20 <pa_6867> another suggestion ?
19:56:41 <jnw222> is it really necessary to encrypt
19:56:52 <pa_6867> no ... not at all
19:56:55 * Mir notes that Iron Key comes with U3 (ewwww)
19:57:07 <jnw222> yuck
19:57:29 <pa_6867> does iron key work with portableapp.com
19:57:50 <ZachThibeau> portableapps.com apps works with any flash drive including ironkey :P
19:57:55 <Mir> we just paid 800$ each for the Iron Key Elite 512MB thumb drives (52 of them)
19:58:08 <jnw222> 52 of them?
19:58:43 <pa_6867> oh...sorry ... i didn't notice we were talking about a pen drive...
19:58:46 <pa_6867> the point is
19:59:18 <pa_6867> I've already have one.... and I'd like to know about a software solution, password based, without encryption, to protect it
19:59:56 <Mir> good luck
19:59:58 <jnw222> password-based without encryption? sounds self-contradictory
20:00:00 <Mir> use Google
20:00:06 <pa_6867> yes ...
20:00:19 <pa_6867> that's why I mentionedthe U3 software
20:00:31 <pa_6867> it's a password base, without encryption software

20:02:06 <Gizmokid2005> Guys....chill out.
20:02:10 <pa_6867> because someone told me this platform had a solution for that
20:02:14 <[Frankie]> Hi I wante to ask is there a skin maker for portableapps
20:02:17 <Gizmokid2005> pa_6867: there is no real way to secure your drive the way you are talking....
20:02:26 <[Frankie]> platform
20:02:34 <Gizmokid2005> there will be a simliar solution to what you are looking for pa_6867 in the future release of the platform, that will allow passwords.
20:02:36 <Gizmokid2005> but not right now
20:02:43 <Gizmokid2005> [Frankie]: no.
20:03:04 <[Frankie]> Will it be in the future
20:03:27 <pa_6867> I got it @Gizmokid2005 . Do you know any other software so?
20:03:55 <[Frankie]> What features will it come in the next portableapps
20:04:01 <Gizmokid2005> pa_6867: not really. There isn't a real solution to just password protect the files. TrueCrypt is actual encryption...as of right now, googling will be your best bet.
20:04:13 <Gizmokid2005> [Frankie]: its hard to say. Keep checking around the forums about the platform
20:04:31 <Gizmokid2005> you can even post in there if you'd like [Frankie]. But John is working hard and nobody but he knows the true contents of the next version of the platform.
20:04:42 <[Frankie]> I did find beta 2.0 beta 3 it is awesome
20:04:47 <pa_6867> @Gizmokid2005: ok ... thanks !
20:05:03 <Gizmokid2005> [Frankie]: yep, beta 4 should be out soon according to john, and the final release is supposed to be very cool :)
20:05:13 <Gizmokid2005> pa_6867: you're welcome, sorry you couldn't get more help.

20:08:38 <[Frankie]> I was jusr thinking a idea
20:08:41 <[Frankie]> just
20:08:46 <Gizmokid2005> [Frankie]: doubtful, there aren't nearly that many options to customize in the PortableApps.com platform
20:08:57 <Gizmokid2005> there'll be a lot of themes as soon as it goes final
20:09:04 <[Frankie]> Alright
20:09:09 <Gizmokid2005> don't worry, there are a few theme designers out there just waiting for the final revision.
20:09:31 <[Frankie]> Alright
20:10:16 <[Frankie]> I can't almost not waite for beta 4. So cool
20:10:57 <[Frankie]> PortableApps kicks other Platforms so hard
20:11:56 <jnw222> yep
20:12:04 * jnw222 points to u3's failure

20:14:00 <jnw222> openoffice is like 2.0
20:15:29 <[Frankie]> Good and other platforms are to hard. But PortableApps is so easy to use and install. Basicley You dont have to be even en Computer pro. It is just that easy
20:16:04 <[Frankie]> It is wonderful
20:16:24 <jnw222> its easy to install just point the installer to the root of your drive
20:17:25 <[Frankie]> Almost hard to believe that it is still free
20:17:54 <jnw222> lol there is a good amount of free software (and operation systems)
20:19:00 <[Frankie]> Will PortableApps stay free. Because I did just some apps which have now turned shareware
20:19:13 <Gizmokid2005> [Frankie]: yep
20:19:14 <jnw222> we will stay free
20:19:18 <[Frankie]> waite wrong
20:19:18 <ZachThibeau> yes PortableApps will stay free
20:19:35 <[Frankie]> Will PortableApps stay free. Because I did use just some apps which have now turned shareware

20:24:01 <ZachThibeau> to be honest, categories was supposed to be in beta 3 but got moved to beta 4, I wouldn't hold my breath on it but it's a possibility
20:24:53 <jnw222> and why did he change the version from 1.6 to 2.0?
