15:00:47 <pa_1105> <3 PortableApps :) is anyone there?
15:02:43 <pa_1105> I'd like a way to start a set of PortableApps automagically, as well as starting them one at a time.
15:04:32 <Gizmokid2005> pa_1105: the menu has built-in mechanisms for starting automatically when the platform is launched
15:06:01 <pa_1105> The menu does open automatically. Then I can start one application at a time.
15:06:56 <pa_1105> I'd like to be able to click one menu icon to start a dozen programs that I almost always use.
15:08:08 <Gizmokid2005> pa_1105: yes, you will always have to start the menu manually
15:08:20 <Gizmokid2005> but you can use the menu's auto-start feature to start those dozen apps automatically
15:08:36 <Gizmokid2005> In the menu, just right-click the app and click "Start Automatically"
15:08:57 <Gizmokid2005> and then when you start the menu the next time (and ever subsequent time) they'll automatically launch once the menu (aka Platform) opens.
15:08:57 <pa_1105> Thanks! I wondered if anyone already wrote a little code for a 'PortableApps startup list' so I'll try that now...
15:09:12 <pa_1105> GOT IT!
15:09:16 <Gizmokid2005> Yep :) That's been around for a little while now. I use it for a single app of mine
15:09:21 <Gizmokid2005> works beautifully
15:09:58 <pa_1105> Like I said, <3 PortableApps :)
15:10:16 <Gizmokid2005> likewise :) everything I use on a regular basis is in PA
15:12:36 <pa_1105> I also use speech recognition (wrist problems). Aside from that, and device drivers, portableapps is every program on my PC too
15:12:50 <pa_1105> THANKS!
15:16:18 <pa_1105> HAPPY NEW YEAR & have a great first day.
15:16:23 <pa_1105> Bye...
