01:56:48 <agdurrette> You need to make it work like a usb drive, it is an option in i tunes i think

04:48:42 <JohnTHaller> ChrisMorgan: you around?
04:48:51 <ChrisMorgan> Sort of
04:49:37 <JohnTHaller> Could you please give this a quick looksee? http://pastebin.com/Sfa0n3Z5
04:52:05 <ChrisMorgan> FileWrite problems. You do 1, 2, 1; they should be 1, 3, 2
04:53:11 <ChrisMorgan> (Swapping the last two because you need to update the full path before the drive letter)
04:53:18 <JohnTHaller> right, missed that
04:53:46 <JohnTHaller> Actually gonna have to ditch language switching for now. whole lang section needs to be deleted for English it turns out.
04:53:48 <ChrisMorgan> My personal style also puts [Activate] below [Launch]
04:53:52 <JohnTHaller> It's only English/German anyway
04:54:02 <JohnTHaller> Done and done
04:54:30 <ChrisMorgan> A blank WriteINIStr deletes the key, from memory, but not the section. That's not good enough, I presume?
04:54:34 <ChrisMorgan> Weird.
04:54:46 <JohnTHaller> Don't know offhand. But that's what IrfanView itself does.
04:55:19 <ChrisMorgan> Then test it; programs using INI data storage are normally fairly lax about that (XML less so).
04:58:40 <JohnTHaller> Can PAL handle the entry not being there?
05:02:51 <ChrisMorgan> Sure.
05:03:35 <ChrisMorgan> It'll read, get a blank, and so check if %PAL:AppDir%\IrfanView\Languages\%PAL:LanguageCustom%.dll exists - App\IrfanView\Languages\.dll? No, use English.
05:03:48 <JohnTHaller> I'm gonna ditch it for now. Yesterday's release only has English and German. He'll probably do another in a few weeks with a dozen updated langs and I'll do it then. Saving my work for now.
05:03:49 <JohnTHaller> http://pastebin.com/AMPfNCKK
05:04:38 <ChrisMorgan> If you needed to change English to '' that could be arranged too - English= and DefaultIfNotExists= would swing that.
05:05:23 <ChrisMorgan> Are you using PAL 2.1 Beta?
05:05:27 <JohnTHaller> Yeah, but there's two lines. One is LANGNAME.DLL. And English doesn't exist. And if you set it to it, it'll complain it doesn't exist on startup
05:05:33 <JohnTHaller> So, I'd have to use custom code
05:05:38 <JohnTHaller> Yup 2.1b2
05:05:52 <ChrisMorgan> Do you want me to put out another beta now so you can drop the SplashTime line?
05:05:54 <JohnTHaller> Wanted to add in the packagepartialdir stuff
05:06:02 <JohnTHaller> Nah, it's fine.
05:06:18 <JohnTHaller> I'll just use it in official released until you get one out and we can swap em out later.
05:06:36 <ChrisMorgan> Really, it's easy to do. I can start it and go and have lunch and it'll be up in five minutes.

05:08:07 <JohnTHaller> No worries, really. Take your time and do everything for the next one and have it be an RC so we can get it live sooner :)
05:08:14 <JohnTHaller> I'm just gonna push this out and head to bed.
05:08:21 <JohnTHaller> (and sorry, cat closed the window)
05:09:47 <ChrisMorgan> And this is another app that's being released without external testing?
05:11:03 <ChrisMorgan> Or is it based on SmithTech's IrfanView? (or working with him?)
05:14:44 <JohnTHaller> Using similar portablization techniques to his. It's actually a dead-easy app to portablize. Just a single INI switch and some values to update. And then those reg cleanups. That works on everything from XP to Win7
05:15:45 <JohnTHaller> SmithTech's is outdated IrfanView and using the old Portable Application Template that is problematic. And I've chatted back and forth with Irfan directly on getting this out on PA.c a few months back.
05:40:48 *** vf2nsr (~vf2nsr@unaffiliated/vf2nsr) has joined #portableapps
05:43:58 <vf2nsr> Hi All
05:44:10 <JohnTHaller> howdy
05:44:36 <vf2nsr> Did Chris give ya my message re:Zaz
05:45:19 <JohnTHaller> what msg
05:45:59 <vf2nsr> JohnTHaller: Got response back for the Zaz site it is updated to new link on PA and the illegal site was removed
05:46:15 <vf2nsr> JohnTHaller: so all is good
05:46:19 <JohnTHaller> Ah good to hear. I figured they weren't aware of it.
05:46:41 <JohnTHaller> Let em know that can grab that updated 128px icon if they'd like it from the app's homepage
05:47:24 <vf2nsr> JohnTHaller: currenlty working on RedNotebook may have a bug working it out now....that 128 I had had was actually ine I had done not original for them
05:48:13 <vf2nsr> JohnTHaller: got an email out to author also going to try it in XP in case it my win 7 machine
05:48:34 <JohnTHaller> Ok, cool. Lemme know as it'd be nice to get Rednotebook out
05:49:37 <vf2nsr> JohnTHaller: me 2 lol hope maybe by weekend
05:50:05 <vf2nsr> tyvm
05:51:04 <JohnTHaller> Ok, anybody want to give this a quick look over before I start posting it? http://portableapps.com/apps/graphics_pictures/irfanview_portable
05:53:29 <vf2nsr> should it say toolbar skin options instead of skins option?
05:53:44 <JohnTHaller> I took it right from his site
05:54:01 <vf2nsr> oh ok sorry
05:54:09 <vf2nsr> sweet can't wait to dl that one
05:54:35 *** IdiotTux (5ee9fd31@gateway/web/freenode/ip.94.233.253.49) has joined #portableapps
05:54:41 <IdiotTux> 0hai.
05:54:57 <ChrisMorgan> JohnTHaller: App\readme.txt is missing but not worth redoing it for.
05:55:10 <JohnTHaller> I don't bother with those anymore. They aren't required by the spec
05:55:58 <ChrisMorgan> Do you think I should remove it from the app template then?
05:56:31 <JohnTHaller> Nah, it's fine if people include it. I should really stick em in. But it's not something we really need to note in releases or testing as it's not required.
05:57:09 <ChrisMorgan> Currently I have it as a warning normally due to the convention of including it and with PAL an error because it's in the app template.
05:58:44 <IdiotTux> I used Mana World as a template
05:59:34 <IdiotTux> I, using the launcher generator, portabilized two apps so far.
06:00:35 <IdiotTux> famous CC-licensed "Phenomenon 32" and GPLed Battle Isle clone, Crimson Fields
06:01:20 <IdiotTux> but I do not know how to build an installer
06:01:53 <ChrisMorgan> IdiotTux: when making portable apps, you should use the PortableApps.com Launcher now.
06:02:30 <IdiotTux> ChrisMorgan: I used the launcher, using Mana World as the folder tree and profile template.
06:03:05 <ChrisMorgan> It's much better to start from the clean app template from the PortableApps.com Launcher page.
06:03:41 <vf2nsr> JohnTHaller: nice error message on site but can I have diet dew instead of tea?
06:03:48 <IdiotTux> Does it hold the "help"?
06:04:02 <JohnTHaller> Tea or nuthin
06:04:40 <vf2nsr> :( creme no sugar then lol
06:05:33 <JohnTHaller> reload the maintenance page quick
06:05:54 <IdiotTux> ...
06:06:07 <vf2nsr> JohnTHaller: tyvm
06:06:17 <JohnTHaller> site's offline for around 5-10 mins at 1am every day. so you see a maintenance page
06:06:22 <JohnTHaller> 1am NY time that is
06:06:47 <vf2nsr> ok so 105 maine time since we are a bit slow here
06:10:12 <ChrisMorgan> JohnTHaller: should just read something like "(If you don't like tea, try coffee or water.)"
06:10:34 <ChrisMorgan> Scrap that, the biscuits line is good.
06:10:44 <ChrisMorgan> Were they chocolate biscuits?
06:11:09 <ChrisMorgan> MUCH better putting in a bit of humour there. I like it :-)
06:12:19 <JohnTHaller> I thought it'd make some folks smile
06:20:12 <IdiotTux> Is there a script for msword to autoedit all **.** strings?
06:20:43 <IdiotTux> sorry, I am not even a proper human, just a lazy, brainless fatassoid.
06:21:01 <JohnTHaller> IdiotTux: Not that I know of. Word's find and replace is pretty simple
06:23:30 <vf2nsr> ChrisMorgan: a while back there was discussion about PAL use of the variable $HOME you suggested I think that that may be coming anything new on it?
06:24:13 <ChrisMorgan> Yeah, Word doesn't even support regular expressions (snigger) :P
06:24:32 <JohnTHaller> I don't recall exactly what we discussed at the moment
06:24:41 <ChrisMorgan> vf2nsr: what precisely do you mean?
06:25:06 <IdiotTux> when edited with msword, help leaves "help files"
06:25:14 <IdiotTux> so it breaks the structure.
06:25:22 <IdiotTux> but plain editing is more painful
06:25:45 <IdiotTux> so with what tool modify "help"?
06:26:19 <ChrisMorgan> IdiotTux: ??
06:26:25 <ChrisMorgan> What do you mean by "help"?
06:26:37 <IdiotTux> MSWord leaves trash files when modding help.html
06:26:59 <IdiotTux> so I need to edit with something as comfy as MS word, but without butts of trash files
06:27:07 <vf2nsr> ChrisMorgan: Let me check I believe it was with defining the $HOME variable http://portableapps.com/node/25429
06:27:36 <ChrisMorgan> IdiotTux: NEVER use Word to edit HTML files or plain text files. It's EVIL.
06:28:31 <ChrisMorgan> vf2nsr: it's not a PAL issue, it's a scribus issue. There's nothing special about the variable HOME in PAL.
06:28:32 <IdiotTux> then how to comfortably edit a HTML?
06:28:49 <ChrisMorgan> IdiotTux: I always use gVim.
06:28:57 <ChrisMorgan> You should probably use Notepad++.
06:30:32 <IdiotTux> NP++ has parsing highlights, but has no option of "visual" editing (like when editing in Word)
06:31:48 <IdiotTux> dloaded both gvim and np++ as PAFs
06:32:19 <vf2nsr> ChrisMorgan: ah ok As I was searching since was not sur if that was my issue with Rednotebook tyvm
06:33:03 <ChrisMorgan> IdiotTux: for new people, vim is a complex text editor. It takes quite a long time to learn to use its power.
06:33:33 <ChrisMorgan> IdiotTux: editing HTML by hand is always better than with an HTML editor.
06:34:08 <IdiotTux> better if you are a coder.
06:34:37 <IdiotTux> If you are just a sad, sick fatty...
06:35:31 <IdiotTux> okay, how to mass-string-edit via np++?
06:36:19 <ChrisMorgan> Concerning the help.html template, just find **; there aren't many occurrences and most of the things you need to replace are different.
06:36:48 <vf2nsr> JohnTHaller: quick question on irfanview I am installing the plugins if the program get updated will th einstaller delete the plugins or is it set to not delete? Asking since mostly things are saved to data so installer doesn't remove them
06:37:46 <JohnTHaller> It will retain them
06:38:05 <JohnTHaller> Most apps that have plugins we have the installers set to recognize and preserve them.
06:38:15 <JohnTHaller> Opera and Firefox work that way, too.
06:38:46 <vf2nsr> ok ws just wondering ty guess brain is sliding so thought I would ask

13:15:27 <TASAIRES> IrfanView Page have plugin for many Language, because the program and the .paf package only give 2 Language! German(Deutch), and english
13:16:50 <ChrisMorgan> TASAIRES: ?
13:16:58 <TASAIRES> I are Spanish native. And See I download, Plugins, and Pluging Language, form Web Infarview for can have .paf
13:17:16 *** XhmikosR (~XhmikosR@unaffiliated/xhmikosr) has joined #portableapps
13:17:23 <ChrisMorgan> TASAIRES: currently IrfanView is only available in English and German.
13:17:40 <XhmikosR> who's using Regshot?
13:17:52 <ChrisMorgan> XhmikosR: are you having problems with it?
13:18:00 <TASAIRES> I are usin many year InfarView, zip , + plugins + language, on USB,
13:18:07 <XhmikosR> the usual problems :P
13:18:25 <XhmikosR> but I ask cause I want other people to try my Regshot build
13:18:35 <XhmikosR> cause I find it faster than the one you distribute
13:19:00 <XhmikosR> http://code.google.com/p/regshot/downloads/list
13:19:14 <TASAIRES> Now PortableApps, Official Suport!, can Incude, Plugin, and Language dll extra. Or Link on Portableapps for Help Moree uSe.
13:19:15 <XhmikosR> can you compare the times with the above builds?
13:20:06 <TASAIRES> Regshot, i use many year too, and is one the New PortableApps, include
13:20:26 <XhmikosR> note that I have only tested the 64bit build on a virtual mahine
13:20:28

13:21:09 *** pa_4524 has quit (Ping timeout: 265 seconds)
13:21:11 <XhmikosR> and also this one is built with WDK which produces faster and smaller binaries
13:21:12 <ChrisMorgan> XhmikosR: is the 32-bit version faster on 32-bit systems?
13:21:23 *** amdzero has quit (Ping timeout: 240 seconds)
13:21:34 <XhmikosR> for me yes that's why I need someone else to try it and give me some numbers
13:21:58 <ChrisMorgan> What sort of speed differences are you observing?
13:22:15 <XhmikosR> huge that's why I need confirmation
13:22:31 <TASAIRES> XhmikosR: XhmikosR only get a image from you reg, and 2nd image, for diference vs comparation to that.
13:22:46 <TASAIRES> XhmikosR: i think is only 32 bits
13:22:46 <XhmikosR> TASAIRES: not my point
13:22:50 <XhmikosR> http://code.google.com/p/regshot/downloads/list
13:22:58 <XhmikosR> and there you have 64bit too
13:23:35 <XhmikosR> it's even possible to build it with GCC
13:23:40 <ChrisMorgan> What changes have you made? Looking at the svn log it appears to be mainly just the compiler?
13:23:42 <XhmikosR> I haven't committed that change yet
13:24:00 <XhmikosR> yes and a couple ofchanges in the code needed to get the 64bit build
13:25:07 <ChrisMorgan> I'd be interested to compare performance of 1.8.2 32 vs. 1.8.3 32 and 64. My own virtual machines I keep clean, so I tend to have a first shot time of only 8-15 seconds anyway.
13:25:13 <XhmikosR> the main downside of regshot is that it's not unicode
13:25:29 <XhmikosR> 8-15?
13:25:30 <ChrisMorgan> But I should be able to test it on one of our other machines which is "stale".
13:25:36 <XhmikosR> I get 5.9-6-2 second
13:25:37 <XhmikosR> s
13:25:57 <ChrisMorgan> I've always found Regshot's performance to vary quite significantly.
13:26:06 <XhmikosR> I know
13:26:18 <XhmikosR> that's why I need more people to test it
13:26:18 <ChrisMorgan> Are you interested in/planning on further developing regshot?
13:26:31 <ChrisMorgan> If you are, I've got a number of feature requests :-)
13:26:46 <XhmikosR> my programming skills as ZachT|ZzZz knows are limited
13:27:00 <XhmikosR> I help at PChat but I'm still learning
13:27:18 <ChrisMorgan> Ah, you're the new PChat team member, are you?
13:27:27 <XhmikosR> not new
13:27:36 <XhmikosR> the other guy is for linux :P
13:27:49 <XhmikosR> I'm the one who made the plugins possible to build :)
13:27:57 <XhmikosR> plus the official Inno installer
13:29:15 <ChrisMorgan> I'd been thinking I might need to rewrite the gist of regshot in Python (and then compile it with Cython to improve performance) to use it effectively in a new utility I've been working on; if we can improve the original code-base, that'd be better still.
13:30:03 <XhmikosR> anyway my builds should be faster and are definitely smaller and can be a lot smaller if you use /O1
13:30:32 <XhmikosR> WDK has the advantage that you are linking to the system's crt
13:39:15 <XhmikosR> this is the time it takes on my machine (32bit) http://img525.imageshack.us/img525/3228/regshot.png
13:40:28 <TASAIRES> XhmikosR: All 32-bit MS Windows (95/98/NT/2000/XP)
13:41:06 <XhmikosR> TASAIRES: what are you talking about?
13:41:10 <TASAIRES> XhmikosR: regshot in Sumary http://sourceforge.net/projects/regshot/
13:41:20 <XhmikosR> wtf are you on mate?
13:41:28 <TASAIRES> XhmikosR: this is one app for 32Bits
13:41:33 <XhmikosR> FFS
13:41:34 <XhmikosR> FFS
13:41:44 <XhmikosR> I just gave you a link from my Regshot fork
13:42:00 <XhmikosR> including a 64bit build
13:42:02 <TASAIRES> XhmikosR: you can use on 64BIts but thanks to 32 Bits Mode
13:42:08 <XhmikosR> http://code.google.com/p/regshot/downloads/list
13:42:14 <XhmikosR> you want me to spam the channel?
13:42:23 <ChrisMorgan> XhmikosR: "Linking to the system's crt"?
13:42:38 <XhmikosR> http://kobyk.wordpress.com/2007/07/20/dynamically-linking-with-msvcrtdll-using-visual-c-2005/
13:42:44 <XhmikosR> start reading :P
13:42:49 <TASAIRES> on Windows 64 or Linux, there any dll and apps for run 32 Bits compatibility
13:42:52 <XhmikosR> what's up with that guy
13:43:28 <XhmikosR> you probably don't understand English so please don't say what comes to your mind
13:45:30 <TASAIRES> XD, not, only to that apps RegShot, coming desing initialment for 32 Bits, but on the time that go evoluting, and how Oficialment come Binary and Source Code
13:45:34 <XhmikosR> btw for some reason using the launcher takes 2-3 seconds longer than tunning the executable directly
13:46:17 <TASAIRES> XhmikosR: yu can need Mod the Original codec, indiferent you copile gcc on 32 or 64 bits
13:46:36 <XhmikosR> TASAIRES: PLEASE, stop talking
13:47:06 <TASAIRES> XhmikosR: Ok Cut and Close = Comunication with u
13:47:16 <XhmikosR> thanks

16:32:13 <ZachThibeau> I read the log
16:32:19 <XhmikosR> I haven't made an 64bit config for gcc yet
16:32:26 <ZachThibeau> shouldn't be too hard
16:32:40 <XhmikosR> but smaller and faster executable should be with wdk
16:32:58 <ZachThibeau> btw thanks for the 4.5.2 mingww32/64 build
16:33:12 <ZachThibeau> still keeping my eye on 4.6 though :P
16:33:43 <XhmikosR> it's very experimental so I will wait :P

16:35:00 <XhmikosR> can you try the 64bit regshot?
16:35:05 <XhmikosR> I only tried it in a VM
16:35:14 <ZachThibeau> sure
16:35:25 <XhmikosR> btw I should be able to support Win2K

17:20:59 <kevinpaige> Hi Simeon
17:21:06 <Simeon> hi Kevin
17:22:10 <kevinpaige> Hey, I just tried to register at PortableApps.com, and received the email to
17:22:31 <kevinpaige> ... with a link to activate my account...
17:22:33 <vf2nsr> Hi Simen
17:22:38 <vf2nsr> Simeon
17:22:52 <kevinpaige> ... when I click it, it doesn't get me activated...
17:23:20 <vf2nsr> Simeon: you busy?
17:23:33 <Simeon> @Kevin what happens?
17:23:48 <Simeon> @vf2nsr: no atm
17:24:02 <vf2nsr> Simeon: can you pm me please
17:24:28 <kevinpaige> It goes to PortableApps...
17:24:42 <kevinpaige> To a page that says this is a one-time login
17:24:53 <kevinpaige> I click it, but it doesn't activate me

17:25:13 <Simeon> but it doesnt really log you in?
17:25:23 <kevinpaige> Nope, it doesn't
17:25:47 <kevinpaige> I then tried the 'reset password' and received a new email with a link... still doesn't work
17:26:43 <kevinpaige> I then get a login screen... asking for username and password... but of course, I don't have a password
17:27:31 <Simeon> hm. dunno what this could be.
17:27:37 <kevinpaige> Anyway, I was only trying to register to download the beta platform version... couldn't find a link for it (just info about it), so I thought maybe I had to register... anyone know?
17:27:52 <Simeon> no need to register.
17:28:11 <kevinpaige> I'll look again... didn't find the link for the download

17:33:18 <kevinpaige> it didn't....
17:33:35 <kevinpaige> so I clicked the "if you're having problems downloading, click here"
17:33:49 <kevinpaige> and the direct link didn't work...
17:33:54 <kevinpaige> so then I tried a mirror...
17:33:57 <kevinpaige> still nothing...
17:34:04 <kevinpaige> so it must be this computer I'm on
17:34:07 <kevinpaige> it's a public computer
17:34:15 <Simeon> try http://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=1292607235&use_mirror=sunet
17:34:23 <Simeon> it just worked for me
17:34:26 <vf2nsr> Simeon: grrr hate html coding :-X
17:34:27 <kevinpaige> however... I downloaded Sunbird and other stuff just earlier
17:36:33 <kevinpaige> That last link worked... downloaded successfully!
17:36:43 <kevinpaige> It must be this computer, for some reason...
17:37:11 <kevinpaige> I did have to click a pop-up block to allow it to download...
17:37:32 <kevinpaige> so, maybe the notice just wasn't working... I've got a lot of windows open at the moment
17:37:42 <kevinpaige> Anyway, thanks Simeon!
17:37:51 <Simeon> glad it worked.
17:37:59 <kevinpaige> You tried the beta?
17:38:28 <Simeon> I run it since it got released almost daily
17:38:40 <kevinpaige> ... so it's stable...
17:38:46 <kevinpaige> I assumed it was...
17:38:59 <kevinpaige> Did you keep 1.6.1 too?
17:39:07 <kevinpaige> Or do you just run 2.0 beta?
17:39:08 <Simeon> no.

17:40:14 <vf2nsr> Simeon: can't get it to recognize lf or paragraph no clue why
17:40:15 <Simeon> I only run the beta
17:40:29 <kevinpaige> Cool...

17:41:34 <Simeon> hm
17:42:01 <kevinpaige> I'm checking out productivity apps (calender, tasks, notes... etc)... and getting reading to update Mozilla Sunbird...
17:42:24 <kevinpaige> I'm wanting one I can keep on my USB... like Sunbird, or maybe a web-based app...
17:42:30 <kevinpaige> Any recommendations?
17:42:43 <kevinpaige> I prefer one with Contact integration
17:42:57 <Simeon> I use paper for that...:)

23:51:08 <vf2nsr> ChrisMorgan: or should I say how
23:51:49 <ChrisMorgan> vf2nsr: forum posts should always be in Filtered HTML input format. Just because you can change it now you're a dev doesn't mean you need to.
23:52:43 <vf2nsr> ChrisMorgan: did you read my response to you I never knew I did it was purely accidental
