create a new entry in the main contextual menu : a new txt file

<< < (7/9) > >>

Ok.  Let me get it straight.  You right click an empty space on desktop or folder and the command is in the menu?  Or you right click on a file and the command is there?  It would seem more logical to do the former if making new files.

Yes, the former Miles.
Create a new txt file just clicking right in an empty space of the desktop or any windows explorer folder .

MilesAhead:
Ok.  After the text file is created do you want to open it in an editor or just double click to open?

Just double click to open. the same behaviour like in the "new" secondary contextual menu.

This ahk should do it.


--- ---Sendmode,input
Click,Right
Send,w
Sleep,200
Send,t

Compile it to exe.. maybe NewTextFile.exe.
In RegEdit go to
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shell
create a key
New Text File
under that create a key
command

for default value put path to NewTextFile.exe
example C:\Utils\NewTextFile.exe

Since there is no window it should not block the mouse.  It's just a macro to right click to open menu, then sends 'w' and then 't'  the system does the rest.  It's just opening the New submenu.
