Default SmithTech Portable Menu

http://usb.smithtech.us/projects/spm.php

If you use portable apps, and feel the PortableAppsMenu app is too
restrictive, this one gives a lot more flexibility. Quite nice.

It's nice, but one feature I really like, and which AFAIK is missing, is
the ability to organize your shortcuts into submenus. Because it lacks
that feature, I use PortableAppsMenu Mod:

instead.

I don't like that you can't access programs outside the Portable Apps
folder.

You can use Portable Start Menu to access any program (anywhere) you
like.

As far as I can see, all apps need to be subfolders in the same folder.
When you refresh your app choices, it only looks in the one place.
How do you direct it other folders?

Are we talking about the same program?
I am talking about this one: http://www.aignes.com/psmenu.htm
You applications can be wherever you want them.

Can I define hotkeys in the shortcuts in Portable Start Menu like you
can in the start folders?

there are some great tools there for U3 drives also. I am using Pstart at
the moment, seems to work very well, command parameters are easily added.
