Hi,
i plan on contributing 2 Win32-specific
modules pretty soon:
Win32::ShellExt, a module consisting of a DLL that implements the necessary COM
interfaces to provide a Windows Shell
context menu extension (and other kinds of extensions in the
work, but probably not for the first release), and a few sample
commands that provide new commands in the context menu of the explorer by
subclassing Win32::ShellExt. Basically this allows
you to write extensions for the Explorer in Perl (i.e.
the DLL provided by this module is always the same that is loaded by the
explorer
process, but it maps a COM class onto a perl
package)
and
Win32::Tray a tiny Win32 executable that embeds the perl dll and displays a
tray icon with a popup menu which
allows to start perl command (implemented as modules deriving
of Win32::Tray and registered through the registry),
this allows me to start frequently used commands without
needing a console. a few samples provided.
These are tentative names, they may have to change
(esp. since there's already a "Win32-perl-shellext" module, so
there might be a conflict).
Here is the info required:
