[Mod note: as the current is the official forum topic for Texmaker, subject was ammended; original was "Looking for a portable LaTeX renderer"]
Does anyone know if there is any portable LaTeX typesetting software? I thought that Portable OpenOffice might do this, but it doesn't seem to have the capability.
Texmaker (LaTeX editor)
Re: Texmaker (was portable LaTeX renderer)
Old topic update: Texmaker v4.4.1 has been released (changelog at http://www.xm1math.net/texmaker/log.html)
According to Softpedia, Texmaker is portable -- see http://www.softpedia.com/get/PORTABLE-S ... aker.shtml...

TexPortable (not tested, but seems to work). Launcher created with AHK (see here).
Includes MiKTeX, TexMaker and SumatraPDF. Starting TexPortable.exe brings up TexMaker and SumatraPDF side-by-side, with MiKTeX running in the tray. The really neat thing about this is that it automatically previews the PDF in Sumatra when you do a build.
The program files are around ~700Mb uncompressed.
Download self-extracting archive @ https://symera.de/texportable/texportable-download (latest release 2016-03-28 | 1.4)
