What about a portable version?
Posted: Thu Jun 14, 2007 4:53 am
Hello,
I am looking for a portable PIM capable of running from a flash drive at home as well as at the office (where my user permissions are quite restricted).
MyInfo seems to be a good option since it doesn't have unnecessary "bells and wistles" and loads fast as a result. In fact, it is almost portable, i.e. after installation it can be copied to a flash drive and run. The only problem is, it doesn't remember user settings from session to session and always starts in the wizard mode.
I'm not a programmer, but I guess it would be quite easy to make a truly portable version that would store all settings in an *.ini file located in the program directory (yes, just like the good old days) and would not write into registry.
I guess there are many potential users out there who would appreciate such portability.
