portableapps.sitesunblocked.org Installer / portableapps.sitesunblocked.org Format 1y1x1j
AkelPad Portable is packaged in a portableapps.sitesunblocked.org Installer so it will automatically detect an existing portableapps.sitesunblocked.org installation when your drive is plugged in. It s upgrades by installing right over an existing copy, preserving all settings. And it's in portableapps.sitesunblocked.org Format, so it automatically works with the portableapps.sitesunblocked.org Suite including the Menu and Backup Utility.

Thanks for your work on this, Brandon. And welcome to the team!
64bit version? 6k4h6a
Good to see a useful app appear.
There is a 64bit version.
Would you portabalize this too?
thanks
No Reason 83m5r
There's actually no reason to include 64-bit versions of most apps:
https://portableapps.sitesunblocked.org/node/24371
Maybe a reason 5j3j10
I re-read the node you point to and I still don't see where it addresses the issue of the limitations of 32 bit in re file size, ram on board, etc.
One reason some move to 64 bit is that large files (1 GB+, frex) can now
be worked on without any disk involvement -- if you have the 3x - 4x filesize amount of ram.
So - a 1GB file (small for some data applications) works well if there is
3 - 4 GB of ram on board. Have 1+ such files open asks for muore ram.
So - buying 64 bit architecture and provisioning enough ram allows better workflow for more data.
With 32 bit only there might be that old bugaboo - disk thrashing.
I hope this makes my request a little less opaque.
Still Application Dependant 64s5m
This is only valid if the application itself s opening of large files, which it may not. Just because the RAM is available doesn't mean the application can use it, regardless of 32 or 64 bit.
Well, RTFM 3bv4i
Akelpad is being commented on as 64 bit potential app because it
is designed to handle file sizes limited only by memory.
hope this helps
Also inapplicable to most apps 72g4w
The >1GB file size is also inapplicable to nearly all apps, including AkelPad. It's a plaintext editor. No one works with plaintext files of >1GB in a portable scenario. And I'd wager none of the text editors we have could handle that. The only app where I've seen anyone deal with >1GB file sizes is 7-Zip, and even that doesn't pull the whole thing into memory.
If you have additional info to add in 32 and 64-bit app discussions, please do so in that blog post I linked. It doesn't apply to AkelPad.
Actually, a guy here managed 2dz2m
Actually, a guy here managed to open up a 5.56 GB file on AkelPad, but the app started malfunctioning, and he had 8GB of RAM to begin with.

No one ? 3m2j6m
No comment about "no one works with ... ".
You do mention *portable* scenario so I'll respond to that.
We use very few of the protable apps as portable. We like well perfoming apps that
are contained (or sandboxed if you will). We install, test and, if the app es muster, move the usb stick directory to hdd. Anyone in a production scenario would never use usb based apps for day to day work.
I suppose this use of portable apps is allowed?
Given the above, it makes a great deal of sense to inquire if a particular app, in this case akelpad which is designed to handle file sizes to the limits of memory, and is offered as a 64 bit (minus most of the plugins), could be wrapped in the portable apps format.
I hope this makes the request merit a little less of a dismissive attitude.
thanks for all the great work - I hope and input is appreciated.
Thanks 343q4v
Thank you very much for making this portable! I have been using this application for a good while now and, for me, it's the best text editor there is. Thank you!
Is encryption/decryption deactivated? 3l701d
Has the encryption/decryption function been deactivated for the portable version? When I go to theAkelPad toobar's "Plugin" to activate, this pops up:
"Format::Encrypt" doesn't autoload.
***
When I check the "AkelPad plugs" folder, it is already installed, so has it been deactivated?
The only thing was changed 5h2k1m
The only thing was changed for the portable version was to have AkelPad write to an INI instead of the registry by default.
Like it says, the Format::Encrypt plugin doesn't autoload. You have to select it, and then hit the "Call" button.
