Adding program functionality

Post by turbogarbage »

Hello, I'm not quite sure of the words I should use to describe the functionality I'm thinking of and wishing I could use XYPlorer for. You know how in Windows Explorer, when you right-click in a folder or on a file, you are presented with your options, and for certain files, you can choose to open them in a certain program, like VSCode. And if I right-click inside a folder, I can select to open this path in Bash. I would very much like to do this in xyplorer. Is this something that is available to enable? Or something I could request from developer/s (Dan?)? Anyway, thanks in advance. Apologies for jumbled words, I am le tired.

If you right-click that folder in the folder tree, do you get those commands in the context menu that pops up?

Hello everyone! I figured out how to get the functionality that I wanted. It is built into XYplorer. It is accessed by going to Config > General > Custom Event Actions > Right-click on white in file list > Pop up folder's context menu

Cool. That would have been my answer if you had said yes. :)
