New right click option by deathscythe on 03-07-2005 at 10:20 PM
Is it possible, to add the following new option:
When you right click someone's name, you get a list of things you can do to that with that contact. I'd like to add a new option and hook into that option.
Ideally I'd like to add a "Task Management" option to that menu for a small development team I am part of. Selecting this option would launch our Task Management software.
This seems like something a bit more challenging but I am up for it. Would it be a matter of using a resource editor to add the option and a process hook to capture the appropiate message? I understand the general concept but I am lost as to what exactly I need to do to accomplish this.
Thanks in advance.

quote:no, you don't need to use any resource editor. You can hook the window and add you own entry to the right-click menu and execute your code when the user selects that option. In theory it's quite easy, however coding it is more complex. I can't help you much more with this, sorry. Just remember that if Plus! does that and without touching the original exe, you can do it too.

Well, know I know I "can". Would anyone be able to tell me "how"?
Thanks in advance
