06:19:29 <Guest83190> Hello. Just a quick question: Is there any recommendation regarding filesystem on USB-stick. I know that FAT32 is sometimes recommended because it will run on more systens. But considering PortableApps?

16:33:25 <pa_8241> Is it possible to change the default directory structure?
16:41:02 <Gizmokid2005> pa_8241: what do you mean?
16:41:05 <Gizmokid2005> which structure?
16:42:59 <pa_8241> for when you click on the documents, music, pictures and video buttons on the side of PA.c platform next pre-release 3
16:43:15 <pa_8241> can you reroute them to different places
16:43:19 <pa_8241> ?
16:44:44 <Gizmokid2005> pa_8241: not at this time, not that I'm aware of. That is a feature that is being looked at though.
16:45:08 <pa_8241> OK, thanks
16:46:01 <pa_8241> Is there a file I can mess around with in the open source files, though to reconfigure it?
16:47:43 <Gizmokid2005> pa_8241: most undoubtedly there is. Do I know what it is? Absolutely not. Doing a search through the files may lead to some information though.
16:48:04 <pa_8241> Ok, I'll do that now
16:52:20 *** pa_8241 has quit (Ping timeout: 252 seconds)
17:01:39 <sar3th> for future reference, the items on the right side are compiled into the menu, there is no way to change them without recompiling the platform

17:43:03 <sar3th> yes
17:45:36 <pa_7526> can you tell me/do you know what program to use?
17:45:54 <sar3th> Delphi, preferabliy Delphi XE
17:46:23 <pa_7526> OK, thanks
17:50:38 *** pa_7526 has quit (Ping timeout: 252 seconds)
17:57:07 <DannyMuniz> man Delphi XE is expencive as h***
17:57:43 <DannyMuniz> for the pro version $1,399.00
18:06:22 <sar3th> yes
18:07:00 <DannyMuniz> the enterprice version is some where in the 4k
18:09:26 <DannyMuniz> man that just reminded me of a small crontroversial news that i saw online some time ago, that when you buy a program you are not buying the program it self you are just buying a permit to use an dthere for the owner of the program is the meaker an they can take your permit away at any time
18:13:52 <sar3th> yes, you only buy a license
18:14:02 <sar3th> usually

18:55:51 <Gizmokid2005> DannyMuniz: yes, that's how it is with nearly every software you buy/use on a regular basis.
18:58:30 <DannyMuniz> I always knew that that is how it has always been but when that article came out it created such a big buzz, when you a software is only the permit to use it, but when you really buy it is when you own the conpany that made it and all its rights
18:59:49 <DannyMuniz> oh oh now that we are talking about license's and all can some one give me a hand, I need a license for a cd/dvd menu deistribution thing that i am making

19:00:24 <kAlug> Hey DannyMuniz!
19:02:47 <DannyMuniz> kAlug: lol you still scratching your head on how that program i sent you is working?
19:03:40 <sar3th> DannyMuniz, what about buying a license for that?
19:03:55 <DannyMuniz> no need
19:04:02 <DannyMuniz> it went freeware
19:05:06 <DannyMuniz> read this http://powerbullet.com/download.php
19:05:55 <kAlug> Not right now. I don't have it here ATM.
19:30:29 <sar3th> DannyMuniz, freeware does not automatically mean that you have the right to distribute it
19:32:50 <DannyMuniz> oh i know i have to ask for the authors permition but i like to mess with the programs before i do ask them if could make it portable that way i have something to show and get there atention
19:35:27 <sar3th> makes sense

23:11:50 <kAlug> Hi ChrisMorgan!
23:20:53 <ChrisMorgan> Hi kAlug
23:25:53 <kAlug> I have a couple ideas for PAL and PAInst. Did you saw my idea for multiple launchers?

23:26:01 <GizmoBot> ptmb knows a lot about HTML+CSS, besides that, he is just a lunatic...
23:26:36 <kAlug> Also, I've been thinking on adding checks for installations on $PROGRAMFILES for both the launcher and installer.
23:34:52 <ChrisMorgan> I had had a $PROGRAMFILES check on the cards for both PAL and PAI.
23:42:27 *** Thasmo has quit ()
23:50:27 <kAlug> ChrisMorgan: Should it be handled as directory moving or hardcoded? And what about the multiple launchers? I understand that there are multiple possibilities, but what do you think about my approach?
23:51:01 <ChrisMorgan> I think we should just say that if $EXEDIR starts with $PROGRAMFILES, we won't start.
