Is there a possibility to use HippoEdit off a memory stick?
If not it is quite useful. Perhaps integraton with SunDisk's U3 technology too?

Hi, good question.

Not for U3 but HippoEDIT is an portable app.
Once installed you can simple copy the install folder to an USB-Stick or to your second computer.
HippoEDIT keeps all related files together in one main folder (the install folder).

You may want to read the FAQ Can HippoEDIT run portable? too?
or even this FAQ Where my HippoEDIT configuration stored?


On the other hand:
The HippoEDIT Setup.exe is created with NSIS and advanced users could  just un-packed it with f.ex. UniExtract.
There is no need to "install" HippoEDIT.

Find me: Portable Application apps Thump Drive stand alone USB stick portable app installer simple zip file U3

Update: read this too http://forum.hippoedit.com/index.php/topic,144.msg1313.html#msg1313 (portable mode without temp files)

Additional info:
What's the difference between using portable installations vs PortableApps?
