For windows users, there is already an effort to get fossil extended to the
explorer context menu. At the moment, the C# library for fossil commands is
being written. See Ingo's "SharpFossil" library implementation for .NET
purposes:
http://repository.mobile-developers.de/cgi-bin/ikoch/sharpfossil/wiki?name=SharpFossil+Library
.

I think that the library currently has most of the commonly used functions
written, so there might be an opportunity to start coding a explorer
extension using that library.

Just some cents...
