02:28:36 <Kiriko> Hey guys did EraserPortable always used .net?
02:33:07 <Gizmokid2005> Kiriko: if it's on the site now, no.
02:33:49 <Gizmokid2005> which it is...
02:34:02 <Kiriko> no
02:35:12 <Gizmokid2005> no what?
02:35:16 <Kiriko> im checking the new updated one and i unpacked it with universal extracter and it has .net 3.5 to install with it
02:35:31 <Gizmokid2005> right....which I'm agreeing with
02:35:34 <Gizmokid2005> but it wasn't ALWAYS .net
02:35:39 <Gizmokid2005> which is what you asked, and I answered.
02:35:47 <Kiriko> yes thats right
02:36:37 <Kiriko> so i gues the new one has to wait till the new settings in the pa.c platfor :(
02:36:43 <Gizmokid2005> exactly
02:36:48 <Gizmokid2005> as it says on the official outdated list
02:38:22 <Kiriko> man that sucks, cause the new version of Eraser has way more files to be added and modify in order to make it portable
02:38:41 <Gizmokid2005> when things go .net, they usually do.
02:41:42 *** Alley^Away has quit (Quit: Work- or sleeptime. Damn how that stuff interferes with my free time. *Miranda-IM rules*)
02:45:48 <Kiriko> so that means that EraserDropPortable will have to wait as well
02:48:05 <Gizmokid2005> correct

03:37:16 <Kiriko> Buenas noches John
03:37:25 <JohnTHaller> Hola
03:37:40 <JohnTHaller> Kiriko: Did you set Fotografix to be single instance on purpose for some reason?
03:38:30 <Kiriko> yea my bad i did for get to get rid of that
03:39:08 <JohnTHaller> Ok, I'll keep it as default and just have the programexeutable in the launch section then ok?
03:39:57 <Kiriko> ok
03:40:19 <JohnTHaller> Cool. That's today's release :)
03:40:42 <Kiriko> Cool thanks man !!!
03:40:43 <Kiriko> :)
03:41:07 <JohnTHaller> I'm adding in file replacements on the INI file to keep the most recenly opened files working. So you know for future apps.
03:41:28 <Kiriko> ah ok
03:42:05 <JohnTHaller> Most portable software breaks MRU lists and similar. We also strive to have all of that work. It's one of the reasons for using the PAF over a simple ZIP (which always has broken MRUs)
03:44:35 <Kiriko> I did not know about that untill i started to use portable apps and saw how they work wish is better than a zip archive

03:59:49 <GizmoBot> OliverK is a programmer, podcaster, html spelunker and pretty handy with a screwdriver. In short, not to be trifled with.
04:02:29 <JohnTHaller> Hmm... I think I can get language switching working pretty easily here, too
04:03:07 <Kiriko> that would be cool if you could
04:04:18 <ZachThibeau> and the things I miss lol
04:04:25 <ZachThibeau> howdy guys
04:04:41 <JohnTHaller> Hola. You mean this, Zach? http://portableapps.com/node/26492
04:04:42 <Kiriko> hi
04:05:11 <ZachThibeau> and not really but I mean stuff in general
04:06:34 <ZachThibeau> kind of been busy, also ordered my new condenser mic too for my computer, high quality podcasts coming next week from me :D
04:08:51 <JohnTHaller> cool. what did you wind up going with
04:09:10 <OliverK> shure?
04:09:55 <ZachThibeau> Samsung (I think it's C01U) cost me about $124 cad
04:10:36 <ZachThibeau> got myself a mixer board too for better control of audio levels etc
04:11:23 <OliverK> woot! http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lfdua18gv71qbbpaoo1_500.jpg
04:12:09 <JohnTHaller> Kiriko: language switching is working: http://pastebin.com/0ykfT3w9
04:12:13 <Kiriko> lol
04:13:30 <Kiriko> nice and i see you are using pla 2.1 beta
04:13:36 <Kiriko> PAL*
04:13:55 <JohnTHaller> Yeah. That way we can do partial paths, too. Nice for DropBox users in particular
04:14:23 <Kiriko> yea that cool
04:16:06 <Kiriko> man if it was not for my dislexia and the faq that i am realy bad in math i would have gon to colleg and learn some programing
04:17:17 <OliverK> math != programming
04:18:07 <ZachThibeau> lol I sucked at math in high school, but oddly enough now I'm remember numbers without trying, stuff I could of used in high school that are happening to me now >_<
04:18:09 <Kiriko> ok hear is that thing i know math and i can do the work the biggest problem for me is to put in paper
04:18:31 <Kiriko> yea tel me about it
04:18:34 <OliverK> i don't know as I've ever done calc in programming
04:19:32 <Kiriko> but what is even more funny is that the teacher that i had for computer class gave me a D just to get me out of her class and now she want me to teach her class
04:20:14 <OliverK> fail
04:20:46 <Kiriko> everything i know about computers i learned by my self at home on my own time
04:21:07 <OliverK> pretty much same here
04:21:09 <ZachThibeau> I'm sure most of us can say that, I taught myself c++
04:21:22 <OliverK> althought the programming classes i've taken have helped my coding
04:21:49 <ZachThibeau> my school didn't have enough money to support a programming class when I was growing up
04:22:31 <OliverK> i was home schooled
04:22:36 <OliverK> i taught myself programming then
04:22:36 <ZachThibeau> when I move I'm applying to the local community college down there and taking a computer course that will touch mostly on software development with some Graphics development
04:22:39 <Kiriko> the one year that my school had a programing corse I had home schooloing
04:22:40 <OliverK> i took some at the college level
04:23:00 <JohnTHaller> When I was yer age, they didn't even teach programming in school. And we liked it.
04:23:06 <ZachThibeau> lol
04:23:15 <Kiriko> lol
04:23:15 <ZachThibeau> I feel old o_o
04:23:25 <ZachThibeau> stupid greying at 22 D:
04:23:33 <OliverK> and you climbed up a hill both ways
04:23:35 <JohnTHaller> I taught myself at home on a Commodore 64 :)
04:23:36 <ZachThibeau> I'm the youngest in my family to go grey
04:23:37 <OliverK> ZachThibeau: try 16
04:23:53 <OliverK> i have streaks of grey
04:23:56 <OliverK> noticable streaks
04:24:00 <OliverK> and I'm only 21
04:24:07 <ZachThibeau> I'm right there now
04:24:09 <OliverK> plus my hair is falling out to

04:27:52 <Kiriko> ok ill brb im going to bather my mom for a cup of coffee
04:32:53 <ZachThibeau> hmmm coffee, I'll have to skip as much as I hate to, it's 12:32am and I'd be asleep so fast, I'm not ready to sleep right away D:
04:33:56 <ZachThibeau> plus I'm trying to cut back on coffee

04:46:11 <JohnTHaller> Today's new app is up: http://portableapps.com/news/2011-01-29_-_fotografix_portable_1.5_released
04:49:47 <Kiriko> lol nice john that is very creative!
04:50:59 <Kiriko> I like the screen shot
04:51:01 <JohnTHaller> I was spurprised the app had as many features as it does.
04:51:12 <JohnTHaller> So I figured I'd hightlight layers quickly :)
04:51:25 <JohnTHaller> Subtle, eh?
04:51:32 <Kiriko> yea!
04:52:27 <Kiriko> Trust i was surprise of all the fitures to when i first ran in to this program as well
04:53:23 <Kiriko> one of the greatest things that i like abouut it is that is very easy to create your own brushes
04:53:31 <Kiriko> and filters
04:54:46 <JohnTHaller> Yeah, I saw you have them preserved on upgrades
04:55:07 <Kiriko> yeap :)
04:58:07 <Kiriko> what i also like about it is that it is compatible with Gimp and Photoshop
04:59:39 <JohnTHaller> yeah, i'm sure it doesn't handle all the effects in ps, etc, but you can probably open them and check them out at least
05:00:20 <Kiriko> yea that is sadly true

05:23:00 <Kiriko> man I know that when FRDPortable gets oficialy released, it will get the downloaded so mush that it is not even funny
05:24:30 <JohnTHaller> yeah, java apps should be good to go shortly as long as you're using launcher 2.1 Beta 2 and the new platform (as it'll automatically grab javba for you)
05:27:29 <Kiriko> yea im switching to PAL 2.1 beta 2, because it has way more stuff than the other one and more easy thanks to the new manual. (They should use TheGuidPortable for the new manual))
05:27:47 <JohnTHaller> Fun fact, if you install every released app and do the smallest option (exclude langs, etc), it's 4.3GB installed
05:28:01 <Kiriko> FRDPortable has been downloaded 1913 times
05:28:54 <Kiriko> please dont remind me, all i have im my 8gb is portable apps
05:29:03 *** OliverK is now known as OliverK|Away
05:43:19 <JohnTHaller> Add Xonotoxic. It's 1.1Gb itself and should be released soon.

13:05:18 <pa_6630> help! anyone could give some good hints in upgrading from portableapp.com 1.6 -> 2.0. I´m got lots of apps, settings and bookmarks and dont want to ruind that.
13:05:19 <GizmoBot> pa_6630: Welcome to the PortableApps.com official chatroom. Ask your question and someone should be able to help you shortly. If you still don't get an answer, try posting on the forums: http://portableapps.com/forums
13:10:13 <benedikt93> pa_6630, actually, the update should preserve all apps and data. To be safe you might want to do a full backup with the build-in backup tool.
13:10:27 *** andreasma has quit (Quit: Verlassend)
13:15:18 <pa_6630> I´ve done a backup, so i´ts just to point the 2.0 platform installer to the root of the drive and and install on top of the old installation?

13:50:44 <pa_9726> Hello, I am absolutely new here. I think PortableApp is the future in computing. I am about to download but I have a fundamental question
13:51:57 <pa_9726> What if I lost my flash drive? Is there any security to avoid someone else to access the informations on the pen drive?
13:52:46 <pa_9726> (i.e.criptographing the contents and so on)
13:53:43 <TPFC-SYSTEM> Yes, it is possible to encrypt the content of your flash drive.
13:54:29 <TPFC-SYSTEM> Unfortunately, most encryption programs require administator rights (that is, they're not very portable).
13:54:47 <TPFC-SYSTEM> An exception is SecurStick: http://www.withopf.com/tools/securstick/
13:55:32 <pa_9726> Thank you. Is this a feature in the PortableApps or you need to do it by yourself?
13:55:49 <pa_9726> oopps
13:55:59 <pa_9726> I am reading now
13:59:46 <pa_9726> I understand you need an "independent" application. This could anyway be a good idea for a new implementation in PortableApps.
13:59:49 <pa_9726> No?
14:00:56 <pa_9726> If I am not wrong, I think I bought sometime ago a pen drive with a security (that I wiped away.. sic) sounds you this possible?
14:01:44 <pa_9726> And, last question, any chance Skype will work from PortableApps?
14:05:00 <TPFC-SYSTEM> A pen drive manufacturer can easily implement encryption in hardware. It's definitely possible.
14:05:34 <TPFC-SYSTEM> Another chance is that you simply had admin rights on every computer where you attempted to access encrypted data.
14:06:11 <TPFC-SYSTEM> Skype Portable is available: http://portableapps.com/apps/internet/skype_portable
14:07:35 <pa_9726> Ok, thank you, I understand. I think the best thing is to explore the hardware (pendrive producer) way.
14:07:59 <pa_9726> Oh! I am going to read about Skype...
14:10:51 <pa_9726> Beautiful! I am definately going to re-think my moving stuffs, I am going to download PortableApps right now and testit.
14:11:26 <pa_9726> Thank you very much for your answers.
14:15:38 <TPFC-SYSTEM> You're welcome. :)
14:16:28 <pa_9726> Thank you, goodbye. :)

18:26:21 <Online-Guy> Hi I want to ask is it Revo Uninstaller just a 30 days trial version like on http://www.revouninstaller.com/index.html
18:29:07 <TPFC-SYSTEM> There is a freeware version of Revo Uninstaller: http://www.revouninstaller.com/revo_uninstaller_free_download.html
18:29:57 <Online-Guy> But it is any good. Any useful features
18:30:20 <Online-Guy> I mean they want not have a pro otherwise
18:31:37 <TPFC-SYSTEM> Revo Uninstaller Professional is definitely better that the freeware version (for example, it supports also 64-bit versions of Windows). :(
18:32:46 <Online-Guy> It use to be a better software before they made a pro version
18:33:13 <Online-Guy> I just to use it
18:33:27 <Online-Guy> I eman I used to use it
18:33:30 <Online-Guy> mean
18:34:50 <Online-Guy> The Portable App Directory were getting really large
18:35:12 <Online-Guy> BIG size
18:37:05 <Online-Guy> EasyCleaner has a lot features or Glary Utilities
18:37:08 <TPFC-SYSTEM> Well, there is a portable software directory with over 2000 programs. :P
18:37:44 <Online-Guy> Are they safe?

18:48:09 <Alley^Away> humm, not sure this can be described as a bug, but the "Install new program.." has a slight issue - which can be said to be caused by Firefox...
18:49:19 <Alley^Away> I just d/l the (I think) updated dev beta of SpaceSniffer, and couldn't get it listed in the install new program dialog - due to FF having named it SpaceSnifferPortable_1.1_English.paf(1).exe
