I don't have an opinion as to whether it should be a plugin or part of the core FARR, thats is for mouser to decide the best way to do it (if he decides this is a worthwhile addition).

From an end user's point of view I think the ideal would be to download a package which included the alias, css file and javascript file all in one go. I guess it would also be nice if the package could contain more than one set of alias/css/javascript files together. In addition DCUpdater would be able to update the package replacing the CSS/Javascript files if, for example, the layout of the webpage changes.

I was specifically thinking of typing in the UNC name rather than following UNC paths in shortcuts. Its mainly because I have a few shares on my server and the kids' machines which I occasionally need to access but which I don't want to assign a drive letter to due to Windows only having 26 drive letters available. It is mainly so I can type "\\servername\share" and have windows explorer open rather than anything else. What I do at the moment is type "c:\" into FARR press Enter, then when explorer opens I press home and then type "\\servername\share" which whilst working is a bit more work than I'd like.

If, for example, I type "C:\" then I can browse through the c drive. I can also get to sub folders by typing "c:\windows\" for example

Is there any way this can be done for network shares without mapping them to a drive letter. For example if I type "\\servername\" then can FARR list the shares on the server. Windows explorer can do this sort of thing so I assume suitable APIs exist.
