About WinMerge Portable ========================= The WinMerge Portable Launcher allows you to run WinMerge from a removable drive whose letter changes as you move it to another computer. The program can be entirely self-contained on the drive and then used on any Windows computer. License ======= This code is released under the GPL. Within the FirefoxPortableSource directory you will find the code (FirefoxPortable.nsi) as well as the full GPL license (License.txt). If you use the launcher or code in your own product, please give proper and prominent attribution. Installation / Directory Structure ================================== By default, the program expects this directory structure: -\ <--- Directory with WinMergePortable.exe +\App\ +\WinMerge\ +\Data\ +\settings\ WinMergePortable.ini Configuration ==================================== The WinMerge Portable Launcher will look for an ini file called WinMergePortable.ini (read the previous section for details on placement). If you are happy with the default options, it is not necessary, though. The INI file is formatted as follows: [WinMergePortable] AdditionalParameters= DisableSplashScreen=false The AdditionalParameters entry allows you to pass additional commandline parameter entries to WinMergeU.exe. Whatever you enter here will be appended to the call to WinMergeU.exe. The DisableSplashScreen entry allows you to run the WinMerge Portable Launcher without the splash screen showing up. The default is false.
