On my search for a cataloging tool which works under win and linux
i found this one, and the win version seems portable to me.

Quote:
The cdcat is graphical (QT based) multiplatform (Linux/Windows/MacOS) catalog program which scans the directories/drives you want and memoryze the filesystem (including the tags of mp3's) and store it in a small file.
The database is stored in a gzipped XML format, so you can hack it, or use it if necessary :-)
Cdcat can store the content of some specified files up to a size limit if you want. (for example: *.nfo)



Features:

- Searching with regex or wildcards in file names/comments/tags/etc...
- Read mp3 tags (if you enable it)
- Autoload database on startup
- Can mount/umount/eject the cd-drive on Linux
- Read file content from the specified files (e.g: *.nfo)
- Platform indepentent Gzipped XML format.
- Import/Export functions for CSV/XML-gtktalog/HTML
- Possibility to add comment for files or directories.

I've been using this for a while and just thought I'd double check the portablility.

No registry entries and it only writes one file: cdcat.cfg to it's own directory.
