01:41:03 <pa_4674> Hello, everyone!
01:41:17 <pa_4674> I have a question on how to use this site...
01:42:03 <pa_4674> 1. Why the app I downloaded requires further download before install?
01:42:52 <pa_4674> Can I download all together so I could scan the file package rather than letting it to use internet on pure trust?
01:43:14 <pa_4674> Anyone here, folks?
01:44:39 <pa_4674> help!
01:44:39 <GizmoBot> pa_4674: 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
01:45:15 *** rcmaehl has quit (Quit: BBL Cleaning my battle station.)
01:45:50 <pa_4674> Downloading Skype, I cant seem to download the portable, I some downloader instead...why?
01:49:38 *** kAlug (~kalug@187.57.10.239) has joined #portableapps
01:50:21 <kAlug> pa_4674: are you still there?
01:50:31 <pa_4674> Hello, yes.
01:51:14 <pa_4674> I wanted to know why use downloader, what PortableApps is trying to do on my machine?
01:51:34 <kAlug> Some installers, like Skype and Google Chrome, download extra files because of legal restrictions.
01:52:20 <pa_4674> You saying that you legally not allowed to let me download, without compromizing the privacy of the machine it will be used on?
01:52:57 <kAlug> No. Legal restrictions for redistribuition (like we do).
01:52:59 <kAlug> Usually it's just one file; you can download it yourself and put it in the same folder as the installer.
01:53:27 <pa_4674> To download myself, where do I get the link?
01:56:03 <kAlug> Found it: http://download.skype.com/msi/SkypeSetup_5.3.0.111.msi
01:56:36 <pa_4674> Awesome, understood, thank you! One more question if you can?
01:56:42 <kAlug> Sure.
01:57:25 <pa_4674> Trying to use app from here, it wants to "install", I am not kidding you. I thought this is portable apps?
01:57:57 *** rcmaehl (~rcmaehl@unaffiliated/rcmaehl) has joined #portableapps
01:58:31 <kAlug> Think on it as a self-extracting ZIP. See http://portableapps.com/about/what_is_a_portable_app#whypaf
01:59:01 <pa_4674> Will read, thank you for your time and help, have a nice day!
01:59:56 <kAlug> You're welcome.

14:25:02 <kAlug> ChrisMorgan: in the PAL 2.2's roadmap, does "64-bit environment variable" means 64-bit-specific environment variables?
14:26:44 <ChrisMorgan> %PAL:Bits%, which contains the value of [Launch]:BitsVariable32 (default 32) or [Launch]:BitsVariable64 (default 64) based on the architecture.
14:27:06 <ChrisMorgan> I've got it done but not finished all the documentation.
14:31:03 <kAlug> So, the custom code at http://portableapps.chrismorgan.info/launcher/manual/topics/64-bit/ would be unnecessary?
14:31:24 <ChrisMorgan> Yep.

21:41:56 <Simeon> hi all
21:41:58 <Simeon> HI John
21:42:31 <JohnTHaller> Hi Simeon
21:43:11 <Simeon> I am just uploading you the supertuxkart package and finishing an email with a bit of explaining text.
21:43:33 <JohnTHaller> Cool. Did you get it working? Or you still need me to take a look?
21:44:08 <Simeon> Thanks for taking a look - I worked on it on and off for some time now and I am at the point where it only works if a C++ file is in the folder its installed locally :(
21:44:42 <JohnTHaller> Ok. I think I can get it working with a manifest tweak. If you send it to me now, I'll take a look and show you the fix.
21:47:38 <Simeon> ok. I already added the manifest. Maybe it needs the version number in another place. I followed this: http://blog.kalmbach-software.de/2009/05/27/deployment-of-vc2008-apps-without-installing-anything/ but its a bit outdated.

22:45:46 <ZachThibeau> what's up
22:46:04 <Simeon> late night app testing session :)
22:46:28 <JohnTHaller> Finishing up SuperTuxCart with Simeon.
22:47:08 <JohnTHaller> And just posted Sumatra and finishing up the others. Finished the content delivery network move today with the last icons from About Us and similar images. Site speed seems improved. And the nightly backup went faster than usual as a result last night.
22:47:08 <Simeon> Its *Kart John! :)
22:47:49 <JohnTHaller> I also updated the maintenance message to say it's "scheduled maintenance (1:00am to 1:10am New York time)" during our nightly backup.
22:48:04 <DannyMuniz> JohnTHaller: that is good to hear :")
22:50:26 <Simeon> brb
22:51:42 *** Simeon has quit (Quit: Leaving.)
22:55:52 <JohnTHaller> .tell Simeon I'm gonna be away from the PC for a while. If it works, just let me know and I'll release it tonight. If not, let me know what you can and I'll see about fixing it.
22:55:52 <GizmoBot> JohnTHaller: I'll pass that on when Simeon is around.

23:14:10 <Simeon> @John: everything works great. the only thing missing is auto-lang switching and a commented-out line in the launcher.ini which doesnt affect anything so its good for release. Im gonna deal with those 2 in the next release. THanks a ton!
