NOTE: JPE Quickie is still a work-in-progress.
JPE Quickie is the tool you use to quickly portably run, and optionally package, non-portable applications, through the use of the jauntePE runtime library.
You simply tell it which application you want to run, try to answer a few easy questions, and you're off and running. After running an installer it will even try to auto-find the portably installed application's executable so you can portablize it.
If all you need to do is run the application, then you're done. But the features don't end there. You also have the opportunity to continue working with the tool to easily create the necessary infrastructure for continued portable use.
If needed, portablizing multiple applications allows you to quickly build up a portable package of applications that all share the same portable registry and file system, thus allowing them to work together as a unit.
You can then have portable launchers for each application auto-built for you.
And as a final step, you can have the entire portable package copied off to whatever locations you need for actually using the now-portable applications on a routine basis.
