Shell+ Components: As usual with Delphi it is easy to start - only a few clicks are necessary to generate your own shell extension from scratch. Shell+ takes care of all methods to be implemented so you will never need to code numerous interfaces required by Windows. Write only necessary code, Shell+ will do all other routine jobs.
General Shell+ features:
	Namespace extensions - add own virtual folders to the Shell name space. More...

	Shortcut Menus - menus that pop up when user right clicks the folder or file. More...

	Property Sheets - user sees them when he/she selects the Properties item on shortcut menu, Device driver properties or Control Panel module. More...

	Icon Handler - dynamically assigns icons to the members of a file class. More...

	ToolTip handler - it will be queried for hint text every time user hovers the mouse pointer over the object. More...

	Copy-Hook Handlers - allows the user to control whether a file or folder can be deleted. More...
