How to add a menuitem in Nautilus context menu.

1. In src/file-manager/ directory, add command section and menuitem section in nautilus-directory-view-ui.xml.

<commands>
    ...
    <cmd name=”Name Convert”
        _label=”Name _Convert”
        _tip=”Convert the file name”/>
    ...
</commands>

<popup name=“selection“ tearoff=“0“>
    ....
    <placeholder name=“File Actions“ delimit=“top“>
        ...
       <menuitem name=”Name Convert” verb=”Name Convert”/>
        ...
    </placeholder>
    ...
</popup> 

2. In fm-directory-view.c:

    #define FM_DIRECTORY_VIEW_COMMAND_NAME_CONVERT    “/commands/Name Convert“

    In real_merge_menus () function, BonoboUIVerb verbs [] array, add the following item:
    BONOBO_UI_VERB (“Name Convert“, name_convert_callback),

    You could use nautilus_bonobo_set_sensitive () or nautilus_bonobo_hidden () to show or hide this menuitem.

3. How to launch the corresponding program in callback function:

    GnomeVFSMimeApplication *test;
    
    test = g_new0 (GnomeVFSMimeApplication, 1);
    test->id = g_strdup (“test“);
    test->name = g_strdup (“this is a test“);
    test->command = g_strdup (“test“);
    test->expects_uris = GNOME_VFS_MIME_APPLICATION_ARGUMENT_TYPE_PATHS;
    
    file = NAUTILUS_FILE (selection->data);
    nautilus_launch_application (test, file, NULL);

    g_free (test->id);
    g_free (test->name);
    g_free (test->name);
    g_free (test);

    You could use gnome_vfs-get_local_path_from_uri (nautilus_file_get_uri (file)) to get the actuall file name.
