Full thread is here: http://portableapps.com/node/12241 Application: PortableApps.com App Compactor Category: Utilities Description: PortableApps.com App Compactor allows you to easily compress application to decrease size on disk and increase performance when running from a slow media (like flash drives). It packages UPX and 7-Zip within an easy to use wizard allowing you to easily compress an app's EXEs, DLLs and other binaries using UPX in either NRV2E, NRV2D, LZMA or BRUTE mode as well as recompressing ZIP and JAR files to their maximum level using 7-Zip. It also has an option to DECOMPRESS an app's binary files that were previously compressed with UPX. Just select the directory and all the DLL, EXE, ZIP, JAR, IRC, PYD and BIN files within that directory will be compressed. Depending on the files, the PortableApps.com App Compactor can decrease an app's size by 50% or more without affecting functionality. This same tool has been used on PortableApps.com's most popular apps including OpenOffice.org Portable, Pidgin Portable, 7-Zip Portable and more. Release Notes: 1.0 Pre-Release 4 (2008-04-10): Fixes and Enhancements: * ENHANCEMENT: Now accepts path on the command line, skips welcome and prefills path to compress making it easy to drag and drop a path onto the EXE from Explorer or set it up with a Sent To in Windows * BUGFIX: Paths with spaces now properly recompress Zips * BUGFIX: Now recompresses Zips and Jars in the base directory selected * OTHER: Name changed to PortableApps.com App Compactor to avoid possible trademark confusion |
