TiLP should probably do the job... but since I don't use it, I don't know. http://lpg.ticalc.org/prj_tilp/

TiLP isn't portable, unfortunately. :/
I think there was an attempt at some random site like two five years ago, but it never came out.

On Windows, TI-Connect, TINCLS, TINCS and TILP require drivers; that makes them harder to convert to portable programs.

Can't you call the drivers via some program on the usb drive?

Not without installing those drivers, AFAICT. Portable programs (e.g. Portable Firefox, among others) are made not to require any installation step; TI-Connect / TINCLS / TINCS / TILP would require an installation step, due to drivers (and registering file types, and various other stuff).

Hm..with nspire Usb stuff starting to become real might it be possible to have some sort of plug-and-play thing?  Even if instead of acting like a flash drive it's made to interface with a specific computer program to make it simpler..
(or just plug a flash drive into the calc, but then there's problems getting that sort of adapter for some people)

We're probably months away from the moment the Nspire can transfer files both ways without having to install a driver, which requires the calculator to be able to expose itself as a well-behaved Mass Storage Device (like the Prizm), or whatever other suitable standard USB class (maybe PTP ?).
And on the calculator side, it would require a Ndless-capable, USB-capable version of the OS, and Ndless-based programs - which will first need to be transferred by a non-portable software which requires drivers :)

How do you mean "months" ? As in "in a relatively shore time" or as in "it will take moooonths, very long ?
