15:55:40 <THE_GFR|WORK> hey everyone
15:55:49 <THE_GFR|WORK> what's the easiest way to make a program portable?
15:57:23 <Gizmokid2005> THE_GFR|WORK: there is no such thing as an "easy" way.
15:58:05 <THE_GFR|WORK> aww
15:58:09 <THE_GFR|WORK> heh ok I thought so
15:58:14 <Gizmokid2005> it can be done
15:58:20 <THE_GFR|WORK> what's a good program to use?
15:58:24 <Gizmokid2005> but it takes time to learn what exactly an app does to a host machine
15:58:28 <Gizmokid2005> and to plan for that with a launcher.
15:58:55 <Gizmokid2005> .def field_guide
15:58:55 <GizmoBot> field_guide is here: http://portableapps.com/node/14868
15:58:59 <Gizmokid2005> that's a good place to start THE_GFR|WORK
15:59:13 <THE_GFR|WORK> thanks
15:59:17 <Gizmokid2005> some of the information (namely on creating the launcher) is outdated, but the rest of it, the apps to use to determine what you need to fix is in there
15:59:18 <Gizmokid2005> and works.
16:00:02 <Gizmokid2005> THE_GFR|WORK: namely RegShot
16:00:12 <Gizmokid2005> that's the big one that'll do most of your heavy lifting.
16:00:29 <THE_GFR|WORK> I mean, I know all the reg entries for a program, and the program files, I just need it combined to be a portable app so the app runs and is registered when I run it...
16:30:49 <Gizmokid2005> THE_GFR|WORK: you'd need to look into creating a launcher then
16:30:55 <Gizmokid2005> the development page will have details on that.
17:15:41 <THE_GFR|WORK> =\ it just gets hard, they have to scan the registry blah blah blah and does not work easily and I can spend 100s of hours messing around... lol
17:16:02 <THE_GFR|WORK> thanks Gizmokid2005: I'm going to be looking into it anyway :)

18:13:01 <Gizmokid2005> THE_GFR|WORK: yeah, portablizing an app isn't a walk in the park. :)
