03:19:12 <gluxon> Hey ChirsMorgan :)
03:21:15 <ChrisMorgan> Hey gluxon
03:21:29 <ChrisMorgan> Would you like the cleaned up version of the Eclipse launcher I did?
03:21:40 <gluxon> Sure :)
03:21:48 <ChrisMorgan> The code is well under half the size and much more maintainable too
03:22:01 <gluxon> But I think I could do a better trimmed version :P
03:22:37 * gluxon starts another code competition he knows he's going to lose :P
03:22:40 <ChrisMorgan> First of all, with my new version, delete these files: FileFunc.nsh, GetParameters.nsh, GetParent.nsh, RepairUpdir.nsh, TextFunc.nsh, TextReplace.nsh, WordFunc.nsh, emptyfile
03:23:09 <gluxon> Okay, continue in pm?
03:23:12 <ChrisMorgan> (The *Func.nsh and Get*.nsh files shouldn't have been there in the first place though)

08:21:00 *** sar3th|away is now known as sar3th
08:22:37 <ChrisMorgan> sar3th: I fixed up the launcher so that the UNC path problem should be gone
08:22:53 <sar3th> cool :)
08:23:04 <ChrisMorgan> Method: outer instance writes an environment variable for the inner instance which reads it into $EXEDIR
08:23:15 <ChrisMorgan> Horrible workaround.
08:23:29 <sar3th> ugh
08:23:37 <sar3th> that's a nice way of putting it ^^
08:23:54 <ChrisMorgan> Yep.
08:28:19 <ChrisMorgan> I could have done it by piping the output of `net use` into the program and trying to reverse the UNC path but an environment variable is much simpler

21:23:33 <Freddie_> Hi
21:24:19 <Freddie_> Anybody online?
21:25:40 <marlop> how can i help you ?
21:30:40 *** TimClark (~0c4a15f7@gateway/web/freenode/x-ztrdyuwjqgoclrcv) has joined #portableapps
21:34:02 <Freddie_> What is this new suite about? I dont now why? Will I be able to download the future music apps separated to my PortableApps Platform from the website. without need to download the music suite? and will PortableApps Platform have a skin maker to design my now skins?
21:34:35 <Freddie_> own
21:34:40 <MaienM> you will be able to download separate apps without downloading a whole suite
21:35:00 <MaienM> I doubt there will be a skin maker app anytime soon though
21:36:01 <Freddie_> Sure? How come?
21:37:08 <MaienM> in most cases where apps have the ability to be customized there are no apps to do so, so I'm expecting this to be the same for the platform
21:37:19 <MaienM> its just quite uncommon in my experience to have such an app
21:37:24 <MaienM> I might be wrong though
21:42:30 <MaienM> however making themes by hand isn't really that difficult. And who knows, once the specs for the theming system are decided on someone might make a theme designing app ;)
21:44:05 <Freddie_> It is now easy to create one theme by hand. It takes to much time to do that. And I dont have the time for that or will. But I did find a skin maker for the software AIMP2. Then I was thinking about. How awesome it will be to create a skin maker for PortableApps Platform. But I dont have that level in computer experience there is the screenshot http://www.aimp.ru/data/preview/aimp_se.jpg
21:44:59 <MaienM> it takes time, but it isn't really hard to do so
21:46:39 <Freddie_> I am still working on to create a Blade theme. Blade from the movies
21:49:39 <Freddie_> I am also telling to people about PortableApps Platform and why it is awesome to use.
21:55:12 <TimClark> ClamWin False Positive Note: as of "Update (daily: 10464)" CW is currently detecting notepad.exe [in WinXP at least] as being infected, it has been reported, Do Not do a system scan if you have CW set to Remove [which is not recommanded anyway]
21:56:11 <Freddie_> I did try many other platforms. And those people who did create them. Should not say it is easy to use. Because it is not. Will it be other PortableApps Platform. t.ex PortableApps Science & Astronomy Platform

22:03:33 <pa_9383> hi, i recently downloaded a copy of a compact version of Photoshop CS4, but i failed to realize the fact that it should not be run with another adobe product installed
22:03:57 <pa_9383> that being said, is there ANY way to repair or reverse said problem?
22:06:01 <TimClark> That is not one of our products pa_9383
22:06:09 <TimClark> we know nothing about it

22:07:03 <Freddie_> Why did the ball change to a USB Flash drive on the Platform when I did install the new beta version?
22:07:22 <pa_9383> for whatever its worth, i found the link here: http://portableappz.blogspot.com/search?q=Photoshop+CS4
22:07:26 *** computerfreaker_ is now known as computerfreaker
22:07:32 <TimClark> that is the new icon for installers Freddie_
22:07:52 <TimClark> pa_9383: we do not support or deal with apps from that site
22:07:57 <pa_9383> on the bottom of the webpage, there's a link to this site, so i automatically assumed the two sites are affiliated
22:08:12 <TimClark> not at all
22:08:26 <pa_9383> i see
22:08:34 <pa_9383> well, thanks for the help
22:08:36 <pa_9383> i guess
22:08:41 <TimClark> we don't think very highly of them as they deal with illegaly packageed software
22:08:53 <TimClark> and make use of our name and logo
22:09:03 <TimClark> We are NOT friends :/
22:09:54 <pa_9383> hm, have you tried contacting the operator of that site?
22:10:04 <TimClark> many times
22:10:15 <TimClark> He knows what he is doing and does not care
22:10:17 <Freddie_> Alright. I use to like the ball. But it is your software so you make the call
22:11:09 <pa_9383> i wouldn't be surprised if that site is in fact run by a cretin who has nothing better to do
22:11:38 <pa_9383> oh well...live and learn..
22:11:40 <TimClark> pa_9383: we should drop this now, we try not to discuss them
22:12:06 <pa_9383> right, well, thanks for shedding light on this situation
22:12:47 <TimClark> your welcome
22:13:28 *** pa_9383 has quit (Quit: Page closed)
22:15:56 <Freddie_> Will it be other PortableApps Platform. t.ex PortableApps Science & Astronomy Platform You maybe did answer before. But I can not find it
22:16:15 <TimClark> Not likely
22:16:25 <Freddie_> so just the music suite
22:17:07 <TimClark> Bit of a gimmick is all, I think kind a sponsership thing so to speak
22:17:10 *** rcmaehl (~4a8dd374@gateway/web/freenode/x-wwyseifjyxwaqrmn) has joined #portableapps
22:21:59 <Freddie_> Good to know. What about those Platforms like CodySafe. They are taking about offer many security festures. That I was to believe can not be made for USB flash drive. Is it kind a gimmick. Talk the talk but does not walk the walk
22:22:14 <Freddie_> features
22:22:21 <Freddie_> a
22:22:59 <TimClark> Sorry, don't know anything about CodySafe
22:23:05 <rcmaehl> I do
22:23:47 <Freddie_> I did try CodySafe. It is not easy to use
22:23:54 <rcmaehl> But can you please fill me in I just joined.
22:24:14 <Freddie_> ok
22:24:17 <TimClark> rcmaehl: no, read the logs
22:24:22 <OliverK> .url
22:24:28 <rcmaehl> TimClark: the logs are so disorganized
22:24:32 <TimClark> Freddie_: it is not needed, but thanks
22:24:34 <OliverK> rcmaehl: nto so
22:24:41 <OliverK> they are plenty organized
22:24:44 <computerfreaker> rcmaehl: PM
22:24:46 <TimClark> no rcmaehl , you are disorganized
22:24:51 <Freddie_> They are taking about offer many security features. That I was to believe can not be made for USB flash drive. Is it kind a gimmick. Talk the talk but does not walk the walk
22:25:07 <OliverK> Freddie_: excellent way of putting it
22:26:33 <rcmaehl> Freddie_: most security applications are not made to be portable, they storae the files on the host computerusually and if the files arn't there they screw up. HOwever some program can be portable but it takes a lot of work. Most of them have no on-access scanner
22:27:32 <OliverK> rcmaehl: quit mixing stuff
22:27:45 <OliverK> on access scanners need to be a server on the computer
22:27:52 <OliverK> service*
22:28:50 <OliverK> and the problem with security programs is the registering of a driver, service or something similiar. Which requires admin rights which the standard user can't expect
22:28:54 <rcmaehl> >< Yes butI've seen no portable AV with on access
22:29:06 <OliverK> yeah
22:29:21 <OliverK> because it would have to register as a service on the computer to work
22:29:25 <OliverK> which requires admin rights
22:31:07 <TimClark> Actually guys there are a couple, but they tell you they need Admin to run
22:31:27 <Freddie_> Otherwise The PortableApps Platform would have many security features long time ago
22:31:36 <Freddie_> If it would work
22:35:40 <Freddie_> I am gonna go now
22:35:54 <Freddie_> But Thanks for the info
22:36:01 <Freddie_> and the chat
22:36:10 <Freddie_> But have a god night
22:36:15 <Freddie_> good night
