I've got the portable gpg installer, and have extracted that to g:\tmp\gpg.
it created 2 directories, data and gpg
so I now have g:\tmp\data and g:\tmp\gpg
\gpg contains app and other.
\data has an empty subdir in it named GnuPG
Since I have to use the U3 version, where shall I place the gpg
application files in order for thunderbird to access them with enigmail?
I can't play around with the path, what I'm going for here is a fully
portable solution.
The u3 version differs from the portableapps version.
I can't have 2 versions of thunderbird on the same stick, and the u3
version is already linked to the u3 control panel.
see: http://www.u3.com
compare: http://www.portableapps.com
