Thread: Thinbasic to write a two-level context menu handler à la 7Zip?

    Thanks all for the infos.

    Indeed, I'd like to write a multi-level Windows Shell context menu handler so that it's added to Windows Explorer.

    So apparently, ThinBasic cannot be used to build a COM DLL, and I should look at those alternatives:
    • OxygenBasic
    • ScriptBasic + DLLC
    • PowerBasic 10
