Portable Applications
Hello
Im stuck with a project on converting existing applications in to their portable versions, What i mean is that i want an application to run on a Linux OS without the need of actually installing the application on that machine. My preffered OS is fedora as it is used on most machines in my college. any methods an links any sort of help will be appriciated. Also this has to be done by directly using available software on the net, Basically all the stuff has to be done by me without using softwares in which my contribution will be null, gcc scripts, unix scripts anything will b helpful.
cheers
P.S. This is a project for my course Operating systems.

Hi. I am looking for a way to write C++ code that will kill a process, and works just the same way in both Unix and Windows. For my particular situation, it cannot be hundreds of lines of code, either. Thanks in advance for any light you can shed on this.

NAME
libquvi - Overview of query media library
DESCRIPTION
libquvi is a cross-platform library for parsing flash media stream URLs with C API. The term "quvi" is a shorthand for "query video".
API documentation
<http://quvi.sourceforge.net/doc/>
Motivation
libquvi originates from the idea of allowing users to view the videos without having to install or use flash. It is a "workaround", not an
"alternative" to flash.

<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adobe_Flash#Performance>
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adobe_Flash#Flash_client_security>
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adobe_Flash#Alternatives_to_Flash>
ENVIRONMENT
LIBQUVI_SCRIPTSDIR
Path to the libquvi-scripts directory. This overrides the libquvi default search paths for the scripts. See also the tutorial in the "API
documentation".
LIBQUVI_SHOW_SCANDIR
If set, libquvi prints the lua script search paths to the stderr.
LIBQUVI_SHOW_SCRIPT
If set, the lua scripts found by libquvi are printed to the stderr.
WWW
Home : <http://quvi.sourceforge.net>
gitweb: <http://repo.or.cz/w/libquvi.git>
LICENSE
libquvi is free software, licensed under the LGPLv2.1+. The lua scripts that libquvi uses are considered as programs and using the lua
scripts is linking.
