Hello Tomek, you are right, this would be the best solution. But there exist a problem with shell extension and .net. As far as I know it is not officially supported by Microsoft. First they said, that with the .net Framework 4.0 it should be available, but it is not announced (but may be I am wrong, if anybody knows better, please mail).
The thing I liked with the fast explorer approach one can customize the options to the own needs, I my self only use very little commands of all the available ones, so I can configure it, to those things I really need, with very low amount of time.

Oktober 2011 17:23 An: Fossil SCM user's discussion Betreff: Re: [fossil-users] Adding Fossil to Windows Explorer context menu? 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...

I find it very good! Actually, it's not that good because... - it requires installing Fast Explorer - it requires adding a fossil.bat just to call "pause" to keep the DOS box open after fossil.exe exits - "fossil gdiff --from previous myfile.txt" doesn't work because "%1%" returns the full path - the gdiff above is called for All Files, which means that this item is not displayed in the Fossil group like the other items I haven't found how to add a group + items in the context menu à la 7zip. It seems like we must write a COM DLL for this. >For my personal use I have written a small .net program FossilCmd for opening >a windows command console and sending fossil commands to it. Sound good. Could you upload it so we can check it out?
