Use Arduino on USB flash stick and without affecting anything on your PC. To use this feature, simply make a folder named "portable" in the application root folder where there are "hardware", "examples", "lib" and others. In this mode, file association setting is disabled in the preferences dialog. The sketch book folder is inside the "portable" folder. This may be confusing especially for Mac OSX "Arduino.app" folder.
Arduino is an open-source physical computing platform based on a simple i/o board and a development environment that implements the Processing/Wiring language. Arduino can be used to develop stand-alone interactive objects or can be connected to software on your computer (e.g. Flash, Processing, MaxMSP). The boards can be assembled by hand or purchased preassembled; the open-source IDE can be downloaded for free. For more information, see the website at: http://www.arduino.cc/ or the forums at: http://arduino.cc/forum/ To report a bug in the software, go to: http://github.com/arduino/Arduino/issues For other suggestions, use the forum: http://arduino.cc/forum/index.php/board,21.0.html INSTALLATION Detailed instructions are in reference/Guide_Windows.html and reference/Guide_MacOSX.html. For Linux, see the Arduino playground: http://www.arduino.cc/playground/Learning/Linux CREDITS Arduino is an open source project, supported by many. The Arduino team is composed of Massimo Banzi, David Cuartielles, Tom Igoe, Gianluca Martino, Daniela Antonietti, and David A. Mellis. Arduino uses the GNU avr-gcc toolchain, avrdude, avr-libc, and code from Processing and Wiring. Icon and about image designed by ToDo: http://www.todo.to.it/
