11:42:04 <beppegg> hi ChrisMorgan
11:42:11 <ChrisMorgan> Hey beppegg
11:42:24 <beppegg> how are u? :)
11:43:17 <ChrisMorgan> Fine.
11:43:34 <beppegg> do you remember our last chat, when I've asked about prtabilizing YourFreedom and you told me about custom segments in PAL?
11:43:55 <ChrisMorgan> Approximately
11:44:13 <beppegg> :P
11:44:33 <beppegg> anyway, I have some trouble getting it working
11:44:58 <beppegg> I wrote this code:
11:45:40 <ChrisMorgan> Have you got the basic outline of it I posted for you?
11:46:34 <beppegg> I wrote this code: http://beppegg.pastebin.com/zucGw9rm
11:47:03 <beppegg> but PAL says: Invalid command: ${Core[Pre]}
11:48:24 <ChrisMorgan> That should be ${SegmentPre}
11:48:31 <ChrisMorgan> But also, not all of that should be in Pre.
11:49:01 <beppegg> ah :S
11:49:03 <ChrisMorgan> And I thought --configfile was all you needed - you need to write it to an INI file as well?
11:49:46 <ChrisMorgan> Or that's just for keeping it saved.
11:49:48 <beppegg> I've tought about storing the last conf used in INI file, so that we can supply the most recently used as default to user
11:55:01 <ChrisMorgan> What happens if the user presses cancel on that directory picker - it pushes an empty string to the stack, right?
11:55:30 <ChrisMorgan> And if the user presses "cancel", do you want it to quit?
11:55:40 <ChrisMorgan> I reckon you probably do.
11:57:07 <ChrisMorgan> Will you ever want to update drive letters or anything like that in your config files?
11:57:52 <beppegg> no I don't
11:58:15 <beppegg> just in the "last conf used" INI file
11:58:44 <ChrisMorgan> Here's how I'd do it: http://beppegg.pastebin.com/SNcCjCiM
11:59:03 *** pa_3838 (779805cb@gateway/web/freenode/ip.119.152.5.203) has joined #portableapps
11:59:16 <pa_3838> Hi everyone
11:59:20 <ChrisMorgan> I put it in the Init hook because that's earlier; if you're going to quit, it should be done in Init, not in Pre.
11:59:27 <pa_3838> please help me out
11:59:27 <ChrisMorgan> Hi pa_3838, can we help you with anything?
12:00:17 <pa_3838> portable google earth deletes my google chrome and its user data every time i open it and closes it
12:00:30 <ChrisMorgan> beppegg: actually there's an issue with how I've done it there; on first launch, it'll come before the DefaultData is copied over.
12:01:16 <ChrisMorgan> pa_3838: you mean this:- http://portableapps.com/node/23974 ?
12:02:23 <ChrisMorgan> If so, please post a comment there and you should be able to get some help for it. I personally can't help you with it, I haven't tried or used it.
12:02:30 <beppegg> ahah, ok... I'll try to work it out :)
12:02:51 <ChrisMorgan> beppegg: where possible, I like to put as much in the launcher.ini file as possible.
12:02:51 <beppegg> hey gotta go at lunch
12:03:00 <beppegg> see you later!
12:03:05 <ChrisMorgan> Bye.
12:03:36 <pa_3838> its deletes everything in there C:\Users\PURPLE\AppData\Local\Google
12:03:54 <ChrisMorgan> pa_3838: is it what I linked to?
12:04:02 <pa_3838> nops
12:04:18 <ChrisMorgan> If it's not from PortableApps.com, we can't help you at all.
12:04:43 <ChrisMorgan> Any other portable build of Google Earth is likely to be illegal, too. This one's not illegal because it doesn't include Google Earth.
12:05:26 <pa_3838> its from portableAppz.blogspot.com
12:06:13 <pa_3838> i know but if you know anything abt it please help me out i'll be very thankfull to you all
12:06:35 <ChrisMorgan> Practically everything from there is illegal.
12:07:52 <ChrisMorgan> And as well as that, it is a known issue that they don't test their apps properly - this is not the first time I've heard a report of an app from there destroying parts of the user profile (or the whole user profile).
12:08:24 <ChrisMorgan> I would recommend very strongly that you do not use their apps. Ours are higher quality and legal.
