I just need my app to be able to see what folder is being accessed.

my app lets people get the folders statistics and access applications written by me to view all pictures in that folder as a slideshow.

As I look at the console messages that the "Toast Titanium 6" application is dumping into my console.log, it would appear to me that Toast's "Contextual Menu Plug-in" is being invoked on every selection in the finder. My guess is you can hook in to the same mechanism and derive the current folder by obtaining the FSRef for the selected file, getting the BSD path for it, and determining the parent folder from that.

A Contextual Menu Module indeed gets informed about every <ctrl>- click (or right-click) the user performs in any application. But opening the Finder's contextual menu for a certain folder and "accessing" a folder seem rather different things to me...


Maybe Rick should define his situation in more detail.
Are those folder statistics created after choosing a contextual menu entry?
