size of unzipped download installation
1.00 GB (1,080,156,058 bytes)
I don't recall it being nearly that big before.
Is that because of the mingw tool chain?

OK, will tell you a dirty little secret:
"Portable" in reality means "We are too lazy to create .msi and obey all everchanging Microsoft rules, so we will just .zip the thing and call it a day".
(But to be fair to myself, there are some checks and directory adjustments in theide, so if whole thing is moved to another directory, it should 'selfadjust').

I just let the copy run while I slept.
I tried running theide from the flash drive.
It worked the first time without any problem.
The app I compiled was just 4,358 KB -- that is truly portable.
That is a great job developing upp.

edit: I plugged the usb flash drive into an older 32 bit machine,
theide32 ran fine there also.

Hi cbpporter
Yes it was slow and it took a lot of disc space.
upp-mingw-11111
Size 1.34 GB (1,441,662,328 bytes)
Size on disk 5.71 GB (6,139,150,336 bytes)
Contains 38,699 Files, 1,983 Folders
That flash drive like most sold now have the exFAT format so it can be used on a Mac also.
I will do some checking and may just reformat it to FAT32
3.4 GB but takes 5.71 disk space ????

I formatted to NTFS
size 1.33 GB (1,437,853,825 bytes)
Disk space 1.39 GB (1,501,822,976 bytes)
the copy was a little under 1 1/2 hr
that is a bit 'more better' than the exFAT
