This plugin can invoke a shell object's verb.

Version: 1.0 (2010-02-09)
* initial release

=== Functions ===

InvokeShellVerb::DoIt dir_path file_name resource_id
Pop $Var

Calls DoIt on a shell object's verb. The verb is identified by its label's string and the string used to compare is loaded from shell32.dll using the reource_id parameter so it will work with the OS's locale.

Params:
* dir_path - the parent directory of the file that will have DoIt called on its verb.
* file_name - the file name of the file that will have DoIt called on its verb.
* reource_id - the resource id of the verb label's string used to identify the verb on the shell object.

Returns:
* 'success' if the calling DoIt on the verb succeeded.
* 'method failed' if any of the COM calls fail.
* 'invalid resource' if the resource id was not found in shell32.dll.
* 'invalid directory' if the IShellDispatch NameSpace call failed.
* 'invalid file' if the Folder ParseName call failed.
* 'verb not found' if the verb was not found on the shell object.
