IRC Log from 2011-06-14

00:01:05 <GordCaswell> Thanks. I left a message a little while ago for John, but haven't heard back from him yet. In regards to Ghostscript, should I keep it a commonfiles plugin, or make it a "normal" app under \PortableApps ? I ask as it looks like it will now be used by both Scribus and XnView, and is rarely, if ever, used on its own.
00:01:29 <GordCaswell> I also reported it on sourceforge, so they'll probably do something about it sooner or later.
00:05:02 <ChrisMorgan> GordCaswell: at the moment, our plans are for CommonFiles to go down the gurgler.

00:54:58 <kAlug_> I have a couple questions about AppCompactor.
00:55:09 <kAlug_> 1. AppCompactor.ini's ExcludedFiles is filename-only (i.e. no dirname)? 2. AppCompactor will revert files that didn't pass in the UPX test mode, right?
01:04:58 <ChrisMorgan> Yes, yes.
01:05:52 <ChrisMorgan> Though I don't believe there is any benefit at all in the "test" call. UPX does that when compressing and will abort without modifying the file if it doesn't work.
01:08:45 <kAlug_> Not really.
01:08:49 <kAlug_> upx: AvCodec-52.dll: CantUnpackException: pointer out of range; take care!
01:13:20 <kAlug_> I remember that FFmpeg DLLs gave me headaches with Chromium Portable. And now the GStreamer DLLs do this too in Clementine.

01:24:27 <DannyMuniz> ChrisMorgan: can you take a quick look at this? http://tinypaste.com/dfde3
01:26:13 <ChrisMorgan> DannyMuniz: (a) don't use subdirectories; (b) read the manual more and check what goes in that section
01:26:34 <ChrisMorgan> And I hope those newlines in CommandLineArguments aren't really there?
01:26:45 <ChrisMorgan> settings.ini=%PAL:AppDir%\NevitiumInvoiceManager\data
01:27:54 <ChrisMorgan> "Trademarks" should be descriptive - "Nevitium is a registered trademark of Data Virtue, Inc.", or whatever it is.
01:28:53 <ChrisMorgan> Description should be more like "Nevitium Invoice Manager is an invoice manager"
01:29:50 <DannyMuniz> thanks man much appreciated :")
01:33:51 <DannyMuniz> ok im out for now, Thanks Chris! Ill make all the changes asap and hopefully i will have this ready soon

01:34:12 <CaptMax> hey
01:34:49 <CaptMax> is this where I can get some help?
01:35:07 <CaptMax> help!
01:35:07 <GizmoBot> CaptMax: 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
01:36:08 <CaptMax> Is there a way to get my portableapps usb drive to autoplay in Windows 7 OS?
01:38:37 <CaptMax> sorry nevermind.... guess I should have read the forums first oops
01:38:41 <kAlug_> CaptMax: maybe. Let me find it...
01:39:45 <CaptMax> stupid win7 i really do need to switch to ubuntu it's just that I won't be able to play World of Warcraft :(
01:40:19 <kAlug_> There was an app that detected new USB drives and started the Platform automatically, but it needs to be installed on the target machine. Does this work for you?
01:42:23 <CaptMax> not really.... i just think it's pretty stupid of microsoft to disable the feature for autorunning
01:42:56 <CaptMax> please replace 'stupid' with appropriate swear word
01:43:54 <CaptMax> ack.... win7 started WoW again...
01:44:45 <kAlug_> WoW seems to work fine on Wine.
01:46:13 <CaptMax> really? every search I ran said that most people have various problems with it
01:46:58 <CaptMax> i guess i i just should have tried it instead... oops
01:47:43 <kAlug_> Well, the reports are good: http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=23352
01:48:02 <CaptMax> i'll have to try it again.
01:48:32 <CaptMax> it'll be interesting to try it again
01:50:04 <CaptMax> i also guess since I'm not using iTunes anymore it's a good enough reason to uninstall win7 >:)
01:50:37 <CaptMax> hey iTunes WAS cool. than it just got bad
01:53:58 <CaptMax> anyways thanks for the help
