    If you have an app which can open files, how can you make it so if you select the file in Explorer and choose "Open with" and then your app, the file is opened?
    What event is triggered?

    Well, if you make your app default for a filetype then the explorer will launch your app followed by a command line containing the file(s) you'r app is suppose to open.

    Use the command function to retrieve the commandline
