portablelinuxapps The project brings the wonderful world of portable applications to GNU / Linux. This implies that we can have our memories of our favorite USB to run on any computer with Linux or just try them.
More interesting is the fact you can use the same executable in different distributions such as Ubuntu and Fedora. And besides, we can say goodbye to the premises or to decompress the file. The mechanical PORTABLELINUXAPPS.org is as simple as downloading the program, make it executable and run it. Today already have 53 applications as varied as Opera 10.60, TeamViewer 5 or Audacity to name a few but their number is growing rapidly. Fancy
with an example?
started ... The first step is to visit PORTABLELINUXAPPS.org and click on the program icon you want to use.
Then we will see the dialog to choose what to do with the file. Select Save File and click OK.
Next step is to make the program executable. That's why we right-click the downloaded file and in the shortcut menu, click Properties.
In the Permissions tab check Allow executing file as a program.
Finally, we just double click on the file to run.
