JasTek.net's Programmers Extensions

The "New" submenu in the Windows context menu only includes a few entries, allowing you to create bitmap images, contacts, RTF files, text documents, shortcuts, and folders. Depending on the applications you installed over time, and whether they featured system integration or not, you may have more or fewer items available.

Key Features:

• Enriches Windows context menu


• Provides useful entries for programmers


• Creates batch files, HTML documents, and more


• Convenient solution for altering menu content

It's possible to alter the content of this menu by altering the system registry, but a third-party application is a much more convenient solution. Although it does not offer you the freedom to add custom items, JasTek.net's Programmers Extensions provides a package that can enrich the context menu in Windows with entries that programmers will surely find useful.

Once installed, you can navigate to the "New" entry in the Windows right-click menu and you will observe that more items are available. With JasTek.net's Programmers Extensions installed, you will be able to easily create batch files (BAT), HTML documents, JavaScript and registry (REG) files, as well as Visual Basic scripts (VBS).

Technical Specifications:

• Compatibility: Windows operating system


• File Types Supported: BAT, HTML, REG, VBS


• Price: FREE

Most programmers would welcome more context menu items to allow the fast creation of files, but unfortunately, these five items are the only available options.

As a final note, please keep in mind that this application has not been updated in a while and it might not work properly with some of the most recent Windows iterations.
