Software mockup tools?
Does anyone here on the site use tools that let you draw up proposed software changes or ideas? I saw a bit about a commercial program called App Sketcher that sounds very interesting up on Softpedia so I went looking for related / similar apps . The only free (potentially portable) one I saw was fo...

Re: Have another look at Password Gorilla v1.5.x
That might work: the program has barely any available settings anyhow.lautrepay wrote:The --norc parameter is also available if you don't want to save settings.

Re: Scribus
I switched your download link to the one you have here rather than the direct link. That way folks won't forget to update it as new versions are released. That is PFC policy, IIRC. I also removed the GDIPLUS prerequisite since it's included with XP and up and set Path Portability to automatic. Very...

Re: Scribus
I went ahead and switched over to the PA 1.4 version. The main Scribus website is listing it as their official version.

Re: Scribus
Tested the 1.4 update -- this definitely dramatic, but the direction the developers went was not towards Microsoft Publisher (simple, easy, and fast), but more toward Adobe Framemaker (intelligent publishing, data-base drive, and forms). It has a wide variety of PDF tools for filling out and submitt...

Re: SpinZip
My guess: First option: You want to transfer files (e.g. fotos) from a big medium (hard disk) to a medium with limited size (CD). In this case you can specify the size of the CD and the application will transfer as many files as possible. Second option: This can be used if you want to transfer a fi...

Re: eReaders Suggestions
Rooting it= installing new and potentially better software. No rooting means to give your self full administrator rights on a device or root as it is known on nix. Technically, yes ... but I think most people are using it as shorthand for a wide variety of tweaks including modified firmware, jailbr...

Re: Someone attempted to attack PortableApps.com
Really? They're targeting a freeware website? I get that PA is popular and that makes it valuable, but it takes a certain particular personality to go after a site that's giving away stuff for free. I wouldn't put them on par with the March of Dimes or the Red Cross or something, but I wouldn't say ...

Re: Kujawiak Viewer (kuView)
Tested this out -- really fast. Also simple and fairly intuitive. Has most of the functions you would want, can look inside ZIP files, and view exif data easily. Wishlist: * Would like it to go back to the last directory I viewed. Right now it will always jump back to the USER\My Documents folder. *...

Re: SpinZip
Curious ... why would someone want to split zip files in this way? http://www.donationcoder.com/forum/index.php?topic=6321.0 I get the 3rd option, but the other two? 1st mode: Here's my best guess: I get that it allows you to limit the size of the ZIP file you create, useful for avoiding exceeding ...

Re: UltraDefrag
I have removed "Intel or AMD processor" from the dependencies, because every single application in the database requires a processor. There is no point mentioning it in the dependencies field. There are more x86 processor companies than just AMD an Intel. Really the only one that our user...

Re: eReaders Suggestions
Have you rooted it? I have not -- the available improvements on the existing software looked pretty minor. That said, I have seen some of the Android hacks for Nook that were pretty amazing. The functionality increase and hardware acceleration was substantial, although there's some system instabili...

Re: Interview with an adware writer
Very interesting. I would like to see some awareness that like the #1 problem I've seen with people's computers over time (above even Viruses) is too much bullshit running in RAM like adware. Startup Control Panel was for at least 3 years my first support application on anything I tested (I now use ...
