00:19:08 <pa_3162> Hi
00:20:24 <pa_3162> I have downloaded and installed PortableApps onto my Sandisk Micro Cruzer U3 System partition
00:21:21 *** techfreak246 (~techfreak@c-68-40-88-129.hsd1.mi.comcast.net) has joined #portableapps
00:22:00 <OliverK> so?
00:22:05 <OliverK> if you have a problem, speak it
00:22:16 <pa_3162> I am not able to install SyncToySetupPackage_v21_x86.exe into that U3 System partition
00:22:28 <pa_3162> Hi Oliver
00:22:30 <OliverK> no, because its a) read only
00:22:50 <OliverK> b) no longer supported by portableapps even before
00:22:58 <OliverK> c) having dropped support by u3
00:23:39 <pa_3162> ok noted, sorry that I did not know
00:23:40 <pa_3162> thanks
00:23:57 <OliverK> no problem
00:24:01 <OliverK> not trying to be a jerk
00:24:11 <OliverK> I tend to be quite clinical in my speech
00:24:25 <pa_3162> it is alright
00:24:56 <pa_3162> do you happen to know what other app / util can install EXE onto U3 System partition
00:25:10 <OliverK> wait
00:25:15 <OliverK> do you mean the CD drive
00:25:19 <pa_3162> yes
00:25:28 <OliverK> you _can't_
00:25:36 <OliverK> that's a read only partition
00:25:51 <OliverK> there should be an installer app on the u3 menu - you could try using that
00:25:55 <OliverK> but I don't know
00:26:48 <pa_3162> Ya, I have tried that installer, it is very limited
00:26:59 <pa_3162> it is alright, I will explore more with Google
00:27:02 <pa_3162> bye for now
00:27:04 <OliverK> good luck
00:27:08 <pa_3162> thanks
00:33:13 <pa_3162> Hi Oliver
00:33:21 <OliverK> sup
00:33:45 <pa_3162> when I was about to close this window, I downloaded OpenOffice and installed it
00:34:03 <pa_3162> this is what I found out: OO can install onto the data partition
00:34:41 <pa_3162> later I can open Portableapp Launcher Wizard and point to that OO exe
00:35:08 <pa_3162> it seems like a workaround for me
00:35:25 <OliverK> more then one way to defure the proverbial feline
00:35:28 <OliverK> defur*
00:36:09 <pa_3162> may I ask what tool to convert normal EXE to the format that Portableapp can recognise ?
00:37:22 <OliverK> just install it to your portableapps folder
00:38:00 <pa_3162> ok found it, let me try
00:38:03 <pa_3162> thanks so much

02:28:31 <ZachThibeau> hello Arkhmud
02:28:59 <Arkhmud> hi Zach; woh you doing?
02:29:12 <Arkhmud> s/woh/how/
02:29:13 <ZachThibeau> installing windows 8 preview in a vm
02:29:34 <ZachThibeau> going to do some testing
02:32:36 <ZachThibeau> also thinking of implimenting an update checker for PChat, thinking though for the portable version I'll have it check ini the Platform's updater uses and if it detects a new version it will launch the Platform updater, but at the same time I also need to figure out the work around for when a user does not have the platform installed too but use PChat Portable
02:33:06 <ZachThibeau> bah just keep the plugin for the installable version
02:33:15 <ZachThibeau> easier in the long run
02:33:26 <ZachThibeau> I guess I over think things that could be simple to do lol
02:35:23 <Arkhmud> Maybe this: http://gup-win32.tuxfamily.org/
02:39:01 <ZachThibeau> I'll take a look at it
02:41:15 *** techfreak246 has quit (Ping timeout: 246 seconds)
02:41:34 <ZachThibeau> hmm maybe something I can impliment

16:55:30 <ZachThibeau> use PChat then :P
17:06:49 <JWHough> It's not a big issue, that's only like the third time that's happened, and I really like the feel of the program

21:22:25 <JohnTHaller> hola ZachThibeau
21:23:20 <ZachThibeau> JohnTHaller: I'll shoot off PChat 1.5 to you later tonight, just working on a few things before hand like getting my changelog etc kept up to date
21:23:27 <JohnTHaller> cool
21:24:20 <ZachThibeau> I'm quite pleased with the results
21:24:37 <ZachThibeau> nearly parodies XChat's shareware release minus the graphical emoticons
21:25:05 <JohnTHaller> Need a better text component to handle the graphical smilies?
21:25:44 <ZachThibeau> no just needs some extra code via the cairo graphics library
21:26:09 <ZachThibeau> I haven't really gotten into the graphics portion of the xchat code mainly the core functionality
