Dear developers,
I think the discussion have gone off in another direction than the title
proposes (I have no opinion on that matter) but for what it is worth I just now
created an ooRexx installation that runs of a USB stick, with no use of
superuser powers whatsoever.
It is only for MAC but the idea is extremely simple and should be possible to
take to other platforms: During the CMake I redirected the installation to
/volumes/<myUSBstickName>. After that the only thing I needed to do was to
amend the path.
Can be found here, instructions for use in the dmg image, just mount it and
read howto.txt.
