00:40:23 <agdurrette> hello
00:40:57 <pa_7281> my question: ywriter is possible to install inside portabeapps
00:42:06 <agdurrette> It needs to be put in Portable apps format
00:42:18 <pa_7281> how?
00:42:26 <pa_7281> i read this I use the portable apps suite from www.portableapps.com and have had success with adding other applications to the stick so that they run in the portable apps menu. yWriter runs fine from a usb stick and I just save everything to the documents folder on the stick - no problem. To do this: download portable apps suite thingy to USB stick download yWriter to your PC/laptop install to a folder called yWriter within
00:42:35 <agdurrette> you need to make a request here http://portableapps.com/forums/general/request_apps
00:42:47 <pa_7281> ok thanks
00:43:27 <agdurrette> even tho you add it to the menu does not make it portable
00:43:54 <pa_7281> ok
00:44:23 <pa_7281> to make portable is necesary that ywrite were portabe
00:45:34 <agdurrette> no
00:46:16 <agdurrette> we make things portable with a launcher
00:49:13 <pa_7281> can I use lancher to make ywriter portable?
00:49:31 <pa_7281> Its developer tool?
00:53:28 <agdurrette> one sec lrt me get you a link

14:00:18 <george2> Anybody know where to download 64bit JRE? #java is +i.
14:01:59 <TPFC-SYSTEM> http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jre-6u25-download-346243.html :)
14:02:26 <george2> Doesn't SE come with the JDK?
14:02:50 <TPFC-SYSTEM> No. There is a separate download page for the JDK.
14:03:03 <george2> Oh, ok. Thanks.
14:03:12 <TPFC-SYSTEM> Sure thing.
14:03:38 <george2> I don't know why they made it so hard to find a 64bit version.
14:05:32 <george2> Do you have a 64bit computer?
14:05:40 <sar3th> most java apps require the 32-bit version
14:06:40 <george2> I'm wondering if maybe Java.com only lets you see the x64 downloads if you are using a 64bit computer.
14:07:09 <george2> sar3th: I just wanted a JRE patch for a 64bit computer I take care of.
14:07:11 <sar3th> the 32bit version is the recommended version of java that is supposed to be used by end users afaik
14:07:36 <george2> 64bit should be faster though, right?
14:08:32 <sar3th> only under special circumstances, not as general rule
14:08:49 <george2> http://www.java.com/en/download/faq/java_win64bit.xml says 64bit windows should have 64bit Java. That's all I'm going by.
14:09:36 <sar3th> "Users should download 64-bit Java software, if they are running 64-bit IE."
14:09:49 <george2> Yep.
14:16:07 <george2> Don't know why the only 32bit choice is i568, either. I run 32bit with i686. And if it doesn't matter, why not just call it java-6-U25-32bit.exe
14:16:09 <george2> ?
14:16:50 <george2> (Actually, I guess it'd be jre-6u25-windows-32-s.exe)
14:18:52 <TPFC-SYSTEM> i586 means the fifth generation of IA-32 processors, starting from original Pentium.
14:19:09 <TPFC-SYSTEM> i686 is a bit more recent generation starting from Pentium Pro.
14:19:54 <george2> So why java-i586, and not java-32? Is it really that specific?
14:19:54 <TPFC-SYSTEM> i686 ececutables are faster, but the original Pantium and a couple of other ancient processors are unable to run them.
14:20:03 <TPFC-SYSTEM> *Pentium
14:20:03 <george2> Hm.
14:20:42 <george2> So an i586 executable might not work on an i386?
14:20:53 <TPFC-SYSTEM> Correct.
14:21:07 <george2> Ok. I guess that makes sense.
14:23:08 <george2> Can anybody tell if maybe the reason I can't find any x64 downloads on this page --> http://www.java.com/en/download/manual.jsp is because I'm not using a 64bit computer?
14:24:53 <george2> All I see is "Windows 7, XP Online", and "Windows 7, XP Offline".
14:25:09 <sar3th> There are different versions of Java software available for download depending on whether you are using 32-bit or 64-bit IE browsers. Please note that the 64-bit Java is presented as a download option automatically for 64-bit Internet Explorer users, as it is the only officially available 64-bit browser for Windows.
14:25:24 <sar3th> quote from the site that you linked to earlier
14:25:25 <george2> Ah. No wonder.
14:25:50 <TPFC-SYSTEM> george2: I also see "Information about the 64-bit Java plug-in" below that text. I'm using Opera under 32-bit Windows 7.
14:26:21 <george2> I can't download anything from the 64bit computer, so that sucks for me. Good thing there's that Oracle.com link.
14:27:04 <george2> Yeah, I can see the info link, but it says to click on something that I can't see on the download page.
14:28:31 <george2> Do they really think normal people who don't know the difference between 32 and 64bit actually visit their website?
14:28:44 <george2> ;)
14:29:09 <sar3th> normal people are supposed to use the 32 bit version
14:29:36 <sar3th> that's why it's only visible to people who use 64bit IE
14:29:40 <george2> Even normal people with 64bit IE?
14:30:53 <george2> But I am downloading it as "tech support" for someone else.
14:34:52 <george2> And I need the 64 bit version, which they make hard for me to get to, because I am on a 32 bit computer.
14:36:07 <sar3th> http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jre-6u25-download-346243.html
14:36:13 <sar3th> it's right here for me
14:37:43 <george2> Yeah, TPFC-SYSTEM posted that for me earlier, and it works. I had thought SE was an SDK download. And I still think it should be on java.com, not Oracle.
14:38:27 <sar3th> it says " Java SE Runtime Environment 6 Update 25"
14:38:52 <sar3th> and you got to speak to oracle about that
14:39:22 <george2> :D Yeah, like that's possible.
14:40:36 <george2> That's about the same as trying to contact Microsoft.
