Is there a portable Perl along the lines of portable Python? Something I could use (while learning the stuff) from my thumb drive? Oh, and I'm talking about Window XP. I can heartily recommend Strawberry Perl . The Portable version is on Beta (the real meaning of Beta, though), click here to get it. EDIT: The Portable version is already out of beta (for a few months now), check here There's a test version over at PortableApps.com although it appears that long-term it will be replaced by Strawberry Perl (which is what it's based on). I've deployed applications to hostile end user machines (i.e.

I have an Portable Electron App (packed with: electron-builder + asar, portable build) on Windows. I try to get the application path but it returns a path within the user\temp folder rather than the actual '.exe' file Is there any way to get the original app.exe path? I've tried the following: app.getAppPath() __dirname require.main.filename app-root-path and a few node modules The path I'm getting from my tests: C:\Users\xxx\AppData\Local\Temp\xxxxxx.tmp\app the actual .exe Path (where the app launched from, and what i need): C:\Users\XXX\Documents\test\dist I'm just starting with Electron.

I've just bought a new 4GB USB thumb drive and I'm trying to decide what to put on it. I'm thinking about one of the webserver on a stick packages, a C/C++ IDE (leaning toward Code::Blocks; had Dev-C++ on my old USB drive) and Python. What development related tools do you carry around with you on yours? Update I've added categories. IDEs Code::Blocks Open source, cross platform C/C++ IDE Supports several compilers (that you must supply) but you can also download a version that includes MingW. (There's a FAQ question on their website explaining how to make it portable) Codelite -- Open-source,

Is there any free and open-source option to run python from an usb-stick on Windows system (i.e. python installed on an usb-stick ) and can run on any Windows system just by pluging-in the usb-stick? Try Portable Python . 来源： https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2465593/python-on-usb-stick

Frequently I'm brainstormed with programming ideas that I would like to directly code. More or less like "Wow, that algorithm will rock! I need to write it now!". For this kind of "impulse" to write, I use http://www.jarte.com/ that is a cool portable text editor. If I'm near a cybecafe or a friend computer, I just plug the usb pen drive and start to write... So, I would like: 1) a portable minimalist IDE 2) with minimal OS requirement (ie.: I want run from XP, Vista, etc...) 3) any modern language (I can learn a new language if needed. I just want write/test the algoritm) 4) Syntax Highlight

I am learning to use Vim and I want to have a portable version on my USB to edit my code here everywhere. I knew there are a portable version of Vim , but while i was searching for that version I found here an interesting comment: I wouldn’t reccomend using portable vim. It is unmaintained, and vim can be made portable by just adding a few options in your vimrc . I got intrigued. I would be glad to have the desktop version of GVim in my USB, but those lines aren't mentioned. Someone knows which vimrc options he is talking about? *PD: I'm not a native English speaker, so If there are some
