@Vulture
As allways, your mileage may vary applies using OS4 stuff on 68k, but yes that stuff is usable. And, ContextMenus works with AmigaOS 3.9, i tested it myself, it requires you have popupmenu.library installed.

 Bug-fix patch for this library:
http://www.sintonen.fi/sw/pmlib-10.8.6-fix.lha

There is a patch for version 10.10.1 in the same website, but where do we find this version?

By the way, be carefull when picking up the 68k stuff. Files which were 68k on some prerelease versions, are PPC only on final OS4 CDs. To find out which one is PPC only, simply open it with a suitable text editor and if it says ELF at the very beginning of the file (from the second byte onwards), then it is PPC only.

 Or use this:
http://os4depot.net/index.php?function=showfile&file=utility/shell/list68k.lha
I haven't tried it myself.

 Does ContextMenu provide non-blocking menus? I gave it a brief try, but it doesn't work for me at all. If it has this function, i will spend some more time to investigate the problem. Non-blocking menus is the main reason that i installed MagicMenu.

[AmigaMance]

Could you define what you mean about non-blocking menus? I will gladly test it out for you

 Ok. Here is a way to test this:
Open a CLI window, make the root directory of a big partition your current directory, type "dir all" and press enter.
 Now, press RMB to access the menus. Does the output of the dir command freezes while the RMB remains pressed?

Good. Thanks.

 May i suggest sharebee which is more friendly with Amiga browsers?
