For now the plugin system only interacts with the contextual menu.

If you put one or more plugins into the right folder (probably will be called "plugin" folder) SyMenu loads them during the start up and includes in the new contextual menu "plugin" element the new entries that allow to launch every single plugin. Practically SyMenu is an host and a launcher for the plugins.

This first step doesn't involves a deeper interaction between SyMenu and these third part software because it is a sort of experiment I would like to do.
Anyway if good software will be written for SyMenu my idea is to extend the interactivity between the two entities.
SyMenu has a lot of good services to offer to third part software such as the multi-language engine (and the best translators worldwide ), the automatic updater, a great number of users and a good number of power users that contribute to the project with their reports and excellent proposals.

Well the future will tell us if the direction is right or not.]]> Thu, 05 Jul 2012 15:58:21 GMT https://ugmfree.it/forum/messages.aspx?TopicID=68 What will be possible with this?
Could you give the community a few ideas?]]> Thu, 28 Jun 2012 18:42:34 GMT https://ugmfree.it/forum/messages.aspx?TopicID=68 For the next version (1.18) I will implement a plugin system for SyMenu so that every developer could create, for his purpose and for the community, new features for SyMenu.
If someone is interested in being the first SyMenu plugin creator please contact me directly via contact form (http://www.ugmfree.it/ContactMail.aspx) to obtain the documentation and a basic plugin example I created.]]> Thu, 28 Jun 2012 10:27:31 GMT
