InfoWallet works this way.

Well, I snipped your excellent response but it was extremely valuable
info. Thanks so much. I am not keen on figuring out code signing but
maybe it will get easier by the time I get that far. Or maybe we'll get
a walkthrough by then.

InfoWallet is worth checking out for many reasons. It's not only a very solid example of a portable app, but well-crafted and thoroughly tested. Bill's demoed it at various stages of its development at our local LiveCode User Group meetings, and it's been great to see it progress to the polished work it's become.

One of the great things about LiveCode is that portable apps are easy, since our stuff is generally more self-contained that apps made with Tookbook, VB, or other systems that often rely on having DLL's strewn all over the hard drive.

While most Mac apps are generally self-contained, this is rarely the case on Windows or Linux. Being able to have everything an app needs in one folder on any mounted volume - such as a thumb drive - is considered exotic for many devs, but for us LiveCoders it's just how we roll. :)
