it would be nice to have the ability to set "quick commands" that can be activated hastily within the context of files, folders, or just nothing!

"quick commands" are basically shell scripts that you could activate at the click of.. well, two buttons, but still! you could add the option to add them, name them, rename them, and edit them, as well as have a setting for what file extensions the quick commands should show for (so for example if i set it to js it will only show the "start node server" (a script that takes the file it is used on {saved as something like $file} and does node $file) quick command on js files) and for whether or not the command is silent (should not open a cmd (or other cli) into view).

of course i know not everyone would use this feature, so perhaps have it as a toggle!
otherwise i think many would enjoy this for use cases such as:

copying a folder's tree to the clipboard using a script that makes use of tree
converting a file to another filetype
integration with custom api's
etc etc

it's meant to be in the same break as "open in windows terminal"

made it a bit more readable

The send to menu can run scripts, Enable it in Files settings > General > Context menu options > Show send to menu then put scripts or shortcuts in %appdata%\Microsoft\Windows\SendTo

It a static list by default, I don't if you can make it change depending on select file

That was the more major point of my suggestion

Sorry, yes it will send the path of the selected items to the script/shortcut

How exactly is it stored/called though

Or do you just mean it runs the command within that folder, in that case, that is not what I was talking about
