this abomination to a standard string a little easier. Or am I missing the
point?

Hi Charlie,
Like you I am more familiar with Windows, but it appears to me that many of
the virtual folders on Windows have analogues in the *nix world. For
example, looking at Nautilus on my Ubuntu system, there is a Computer and a
Desktop entry.
As for the usefulness of the library, I cannot

Hello Khaled,
I do not quite understand you -- MS PowerShell is a scripting language as
far as I can tell. My code is concerned with exposing the Windows Shell
Namespace to .NET applications, the Windows Shell Namespace being the
hierarchy of files, folders and Virtual Folders as used by Windows
Aplologies for replying to my own message, but I have a few questions to
field.
1) Does Mono simply need to provide an API to get the icons for files and
folders, and find the location in the filesystem of the Recent Documents
list?
2) Or do we need to expose the Shell/Nautilus/etc Namespace in

The framework already have such an API (in 2.0) with
My opinion, but what I think we need to achieve, and how to get there is
roughly:
- Get the Moma results of P/Invoke calls, sorted by call frequency.
- For each one:
- Try to figure out why it's being called (what the user is trying to
accomplish, which is not always easy or possible)

Yes, I agree with your assesment.
As for duplicating the Windows Shell API, it would need to be abstracted
quite significantly, as it is the single worst API I have used, and very
much tied to the win32 implementation.
How does one go about getting the Moma results?
