Ya, I know.. but I was asking whether it adds an option to open the file/folder in DOS, or what..?

Anyway, I tried it and understood. It will open the folder in DOS.

I made a registry key, so that it becomes easy for new users.. Will upload soon.

I like this Idea since I use Batch scripting and such would it be possible to add a Run as Command Prompt as well in there. Just an Idle thought since you can do so much with the command line area.
