Hi, this is a Visual Studio Add-in that you are referring to. You can create a 
Visual Studio add-in by using the new project wizard, and
select the add-in project type beneath the Other Project Types -> Extensibility.

There is some documentation at MSDN, but I have found the best guidance to be 
the blog of Carlos Quintero, especially this references page:
http://www.mztools.com/resources_vsnet_addins.aspx

This page in particular how you how to add a popup menu bar to the context menu 
of the Code Window:
http://www.mztools.com/articles/2004/MZ2004003.aspx

You can basically jut replace the menu name with "Project" of "Item" to have 
the context menu appear when you right-click a project/project item.

Hope that helps

Subject: [WiX-users] Visual Studio Integration Question

I have a question about something but I don't know the terminology needed to do 
a google search.

Does anyone know what it's called and how to configure  the right click context 
menu items that appear on visual studio project items?

For example, in a WCF Service Library project you can right click App.Config 
and get a menu entry called "Edit WCF Configuration".

I see where you can do an open with and set default but that's too clunky.  I 
need to figure out how to add an easier to access, non-default menu item for a 
specific file extension ( .wxs of course :-)  )
