I've seen this for quite a few programs. For example, "Make" is included
when you right-click a VB project file in explorer. How is that done?

Fire up te MSDN and under the "Index" tab type in "Shell Extension",
it'll jump to it earlier as you type. Then scroll down about 1/10th of
the page and look for "Modifying the Context Menu for a File Class".
It's all in there.
