Welcome to Portable Apps for Linux. 

(This project ceased to be under active development in 2010. The apps remain online for archival purposes. We recommend http://portablelinuxapps.org/ for a great collection of portable Linux apps.)

Portable Apps for Linux (pafl) give you with the ability to carry your Linux programs, settings, and documents along with you, wherever you go. 

No install required. Remember that next time you're trying to install something on Linux, and your favorite package manager isn't working. With pafl, you just download and run. It's that simple.

Not only that, but if you put pafl apps on your USB drive, they'll save all your settings, and if you plug the drive into a different Linux computer, all your settings will still be there. Amazing, huh?
