yaP - yet another Portablizer
Posted: Tue Dec 08, 2009 9:55 am
Update:
find latest version and documentation on yaP website.
-----------------------------------------------
Hi guys,
I've made a small utility called yaP to make it easy to launch some applications that are almost portable.
It is similar to X-launcher but somewhat easier.
yaP can execute batch files and import registry keys before & after the main application.
Usage scenarios
- applications requiring some files to be copied somewhere to run (eg. config file in Windows directory)
- applications requiring some registry entries to run
- applications requiring dll registrations
- etc.
Features
- ini-based settings
- absolute and relative path support
- executing batch files before launch and on close
- importing reg files before launch and on close (cleanup)
- executing batch files completely silent
- executing applications with command line parameters
- system refresh support
- support for launch & quit (disable waiting for the main application to terminate)
- extra wait option for slower computers or slower applications
- option to use a separate directory for registry, batch or other files
- setting custom working directory (absolute or relative path)
- option to prompt user before & after running the main application
Usage
1. Edit yaP.ini and fill the required sections (application, commandline, before & after sections, etc)
2. Create your batch files
3. Copy yaP.ini and yaP.exe to your application's directory
4. Run yaP.exe
