Hello,

I am researching options for integrating with Finder. In particular, I would 
like my application to provide file and directory icon overlays similar to how 
Dropbox.app overlays green and blue images on top of file and folder images.

I noticed a few applications (svn utilities) that have used 
`/Library/Contextual Menu Plugins` plugins to accomplish this. I've also seen 
programs use SIMBL [1] plugins. Contextual Menu Plugins appears to have been 
replaced by Automator Services, and SIMBL seems like an unsupported hack.

Is there an 'official' way to integrate with the finder? If so, what is it? If 
not, how does dropbox accomplish their finder integration? 

Either way, I would certainly appreciate any information / source code you 
could provide.


Thanks,
Damon
