I wanted a paf version of PSPad and I tried the online installer version of @prapper which unfortunately does not work. |
AutoHotkey is a powerful automation and scripting tool with an option to export to a self-contained executable. Possible uses include assigning the hotkey "Ctrl-Alt-F" to launch Firefox, making abbreviations expand to their full definition as you type them, or saving time by setting the computer to auto-click a confirmation screen.
The program can create entire applications and has been used to create many hosted here on PortableFreeware including 7plus, WallPaper Randomizer, Gridy and many more.
Note: Pulover's Macro Creator can be used as a macro recorder and includes an "Export to AHK" function.
