+#Running Wookie from a USB Stick
+
+While having Wookie installed on your machine is a relatively trivial task to setup, there may be some
+situations where also having a Wookie environment on a removable USB pen/flash drive could be handy.
+Having such a Wookie setup allows you to plug and play Wookie on more than one machine.
+
+The most simple method to create such an environment would be to use one of the current Wookie standalone
+builds and configure that to run from your USB drive. Another more slightly complicated method might be to
+install the Wookie source code onto your USB drive, along with any developer tools needed to compile and run
+that code. What follows are some instructions on how you might go about doing these tasks.
+
+In order to run Wookie from a USB drive, we assume that you would also want to install a JDK onto your drive
+(in case another machine does not have Java already installed). However, bear in mind that because of the
+differences in Java implementations on various platforms (Windows, Mac OS, Linux etc), you may be limited to a
+windows/Mac OS/Linux portable version. It may be possible to install more than one JDK onto your USB drive to
+achieve a cross platform version, but this guide does not try to describe such an environment.
+
+## Making a USB drive environment from a Wookie standalone build (Windows only)
+
+<ul>
+ <li>If you haven't already, install a JDK to your local machine.</li>
+ Use a [Java JDK][1] (note the JRE is not sufficient)
+ <br/><br/>
+ <li>Find the folder where your JDK is installed locally.</li>
+ For example it may be found at C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_24
+ <br/><br/>
+ <li>Create a new "Java" folder at the ROOT of your USB drive. (e.g F:\Java)</li>
+ Copy the contents of C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_24 to F:\Java.
+ <br/><br/>
+ <li>If you haven't already, download the latest Wookie Standalone build</li>
+ Download [apache-wookie-0.9.1-incubating-standalone.zip][2]
+ <br/><br/>
+ <li>Unzip the download to the ROOT of your USB drive.</li>
+ This should create a new folder. (e.g F:\apache-wookie-0.9.1-incubating-standalone)
+ <br/><br/>
+ <li>Next you will need to modify Wookies startup.bat and shutdown.bat scripts</li>
+ First find the file F:\apache-wookie-0.9.1-incubating-standalone\startup.bat and open it to edit.
+ Under the line...
+
+ Set PROGARGS=
+
+ ...add the following two lines underneath...
+
+ set pathDrive=%cd:~0,2%
+ set PATH=%PATH%;%pathDrive%\Java\bin
+ Now find the file F:\apache-wookie-0.9.1-incubating-standalone\shutdown.bat and open it to edit.
+ Under the line...
+
+ REM under the License.
+
+ ...also add the same two lines underneath...
+
+ set pathDrive=%cd:~0,2%
+ set PATH=%PATH%;%pathDrive%\Java\bin
+
+ Save both files.
+ <br/><br/>
+ <li>You should now be able to use the USB installed version of the JDK to run Wookie on another Windows machine.</li>
+ Just double click the startup.bat/shutdown.bat scripts to start/stop Wookie.
+</ul>
+
+## Making a USB drive Developer environment for Wookie sources
+
+The previous instructions described how to use an existing build of Wookie to create a USB Wookie environment. Additionally, it is
+also possible to create a developer environment on a USB stick. This means you would be able to change the source code and update
+it, as well as receiving new updates to the code from other developers. To do this you would have to download and install some
+additional software to your USB stick, namely an SVN client and also [Apache Ant][3].
+
+Martin Hawksey has written an excellent guide on his blog detailing the process of creating such an
+environment for windows. See his blog [here][4].
