01:27:31 <JAWS> hi, what makes LibreOffice Portable and such so much smaller (as in Mb) than Microsoft Word?
01:29:11 *** gluxon (~gluxon@c-71-234-105-104.hsd1.ct.comcast.net) has joined #portableapps
01:29:26 <ZachThibeau> ask the LibreOffice team, we don't do anything different to LibreOffice
01:38:19 <JAWS> ok, thanks for the help!

01:41:13 <JAWS> one more question, would it possible for the Backup utility to automatically add the drives name into the filename?
01:55:48 <JAWS> I'm sorry I am literally falling asleep at the keyboard. It has been a very long week. Bye I will return tomorrow possibly. Thanks for all the help everyone

02:49:49 <Mir> i cant belive
02:49:53 * Mir is listening to Cant Believe by Staind on Break the Cycle [Amarok2]
02:50:32 <Mir> that some guy would mention "wine doesnt have great support. Use TinyXP a miniXP!"
02:50:39 <Mir> umm
02:50:56 <gluxon> Urm..
02:51:01 <Mir> tinyXP is a non-cleanroom reverse engineered XP
02:51:14 <Mir> its illegal in so many ways in so many countries
02:51:27 * Mir viciously glomps gluxon
02:51:34 <Mir> 8D
02:51:36 <kAlug> I saw that topic... but what is a cleanroom?
02:52:01 <Mir> it means the people who designed the code did not use the original code as a base
02:52:06 * gluxon squirms, then stops moving....
02:52:08 <Mir> for example
02:52:36 <Mir> AMD reverse engineered the 486 without looking or copying the specs of intel
02:52:49 <Mir> they did a "cleanroom" reverse engineere
02:52:59 <Mir> google for more info
02:53:20 <Mir> but a cleanroom reverse engineering is best when taking an issue to court
02:54:17 <Mir> thats why what would have been the BEST psx emulator lost and the company who made the best PSX emulator at the time got bought by Microsoft due to the money they lost to Sony
02:54:56 <gluxon> Mir sure knows his cleanroom history :)
02:55:13 * Mir pokes gluxon with a scarry needle filled with lots of caffine sugar rainbows and fairy dust
02:55:32 <Mir> yup
02:55:42 <Mir> i had to explain it to my boss recently
02:56:10 <kAlug> Thanks for the explanation.
02:56:39 <Mir> kAlug: Wine is an example of grey reverse engineering
02:57:08 <Mir> a lots of the code has been cleanroomed but there is the possibility someone sliped some premade official code in
02:57:19 <Mir> ie copy pasta
02:57:43 <Mir> thats one reason Microsoft hasnt yet quashed WINE
02:58:17 <Mir> another example is the Microsoft code in linux
02:58:47 <Mir> which we dont have to worry about thanks to Novell/Attachmate
02:58:51 <Mir> \o/
02:59:11 <gluxon> ..
02:59:16 <gluxon> What Microsoft code in Linux?
02:59:38 *** Thasmo has quit ()
03:03:35 <Mir> gluxon: you didnt know there is microsoft code in linux and that linux violates some MS patents?
03:03:42 <Mir> :O
03:03:47 <kAlug> Hey, is anyone here developing portable apps with PAL? I'd like to know if there are any missing features, things that could be enhanced, etc.
03:03:51 <Mir> thats a good thing
03:04:05 * Mir lurks off
03:05:19 <gluxon> ..
03:05:21 <gluxon> No. :-/
03:05:35 <gluxon> Why's that a good thing?
03:22:32 *** gluxon has parted #portableapps (None)
04:17:38 <DannyMuniz> kAlug: would it be possible to add some examples for the launcher.ini for example in file write. Instead of saying what it dose could you add an example
04:18:43 <DannyMuniz> see i am a visual person and the new manual is great but just reading what it dose and seeing some part of the code would be better
04:42:00 <kAlug> Well, I was thinking of something in the code part... ChrisMorgan is much better than me for documentation.
