typing your subject into a google search box brings up plenty of hits, including http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-list/2005-March/271141.html From: Roger Upole Date: Tue Mar 15 12:39:43 CET 2005 There's an example shell extension in the Pywin32 demos that creates a pseudo-folder whose contents are determined by python code. Take a look at \win32comext\shell\demos\servers\shell_view.py. However, I don't think it qualifies as 'simple' ;) (alright, that one was two clicks away from the search result, not one, but that's close enough) here's a direct pointer to an on-line copy of that script, btw: http://tinyurl.com/babct (that copy may be outdated; you may want to get the latest version from the pywin package before you start hacking on this) </F> -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
