"Open with program" command/execution mode?

Hi, is there a way I could select some files in Windows Explorer and then open them with a progam from the SyMenu? All the programs are portable programs and batch files on a flash drive. In Windows, the Right Click -> Send To menu has this kind of behavior. edited by sinilill on 25/01/2015 edited by sinilill on 25/01/2015 |

I don't want to use the extension manager, because I might have multiple programs to choose from. I also have many batch files with different predefined tasks, that's why I need the "send to"/"open with" like behavior.
E: I need like a selected files variable, but windows doesn't have one With the Send To menu Windows sends the selected files to program. It works like with many programs from the command line: myprogram.exe myfile1.mp4 myfile2.mp4 myfile3.mp4 edited by sinilill on 25/01/2015 |

eson, thanks for responding. FileMenu Tools is also OK, but I like SyMenu more. In FileMenu I could make my own SendTo menu, but I didn't like 2 things about it. First, it was in the Wndows context menu, for me it's annoying because my Windows context menu is almost the height of my screen, too much distracting information. Second, the register and unregister thing.
I like SyMenu much much more, even without my desired functionality. But if it had the functionality - passing file paths as arguments to a executable, it would be a killer menu launcher. Then I could open my selected files with my desired program, extension manager does this automatically, but I want to have a choice.
