Which module does that? I want it!
What about CMScript? A way cool tool for CM users who script, IMO. It
could be set up to do this, and most other things, very easily.
It runs compiled scripts on the context. Click on the desktop & certain
functions come up, click on a disk icon and others appear, and so on.
Specify the context in the "Description" field of the script, as shown
below. Its applications are fairly
One example I use regularly is a script that opens files using Script
Editor, that is set to be visible for any of the following:
fss APPC
fss APPL
fss appe
fss FNDRMACS
fss INIT
fss osax
fss osas
So it will offer to open apps, FBAs, applets, droplets, extensions,
osaxen and so on.
It's freeware and the source is included. I got it from here:
http://www.schuerig.de/michael/soft/CMScript-133.hqx
The ReadMe for this says that it is intended to become a part of the
OSAMenu at some stage, though when I contacted the author last year, he
said that he was no longer developing it.
