The end results I was hoping for was having access to files, folders, .exe, clipboard items, notepad items, internet urls...without having to leave Calibre, access and access those files, folders, programs, notes, and internet sites.

I have looked into all the "open with" plugins and features but they are not run asynchronously. They require customizing to the specific book files. I might not need to open a program with the book file. Again, this is probably redundant.

Thank you for pointing out the steps I need to take before throwing out all my suggestions. I basically was going through my library and thinking how great it would be if I could add those resources to it , again, like my Directory Opus setup.

Now that I think of it, it would be nice to be able to choose my file manager whenever I need to add a file to Calibre, instead of Explorer. Being able to enter the pathway to the dopus.exe file as an override to Explorer would be nice. Also, maybe being able to choose which browser to open.

Thanks!
