Great job ! Really ! Do you kown if it is alway necessary to use your program ? I am facing to the same issue today and your job is cool but why we need to use an external program to do this simple things ?

My friend just asked me this the other day. The answer is rather simple. From what I understand, the context menu in Windows is a simple piece of software. It works kind of like a terminal. In a terminal, you have to provide multiple paths to run a program on different files in different folders. This is easy in the terminal, because you can type the invocation of the program yourself. But in the explorer, if you want to use the context menu to do the same thing, you are pretty much limited to working with files in a single directory. Using techniques like this one, you can easily run a single program on multiple files from multiple directories.
