Hi all, I'm a Directory Opus user and am trying to simulate the BC3 Explorer context menu within DOpus. Namely, the following context menu choices:
Select Left Side
Select Right Side
Compare to...
I've looked through BC's command line switches but there doesn't seem to be one that forces the selected file to be shown in the right or left pane. There also doesn't seem to be a way to load a single file into BC, navigate to another directory to select a second file, and then execute a "compare to..." command (referring to the previously loaded file in BC).
Does anyone know of a way to get this done through command line arguments, without having to incorporate BC's shell into DOpus? I figured something simple like the following could work, but it doesn't (most likely because I haven't fully understood BC's command line switches)
I've already asked at the DOpus forums but nobody seems to have any idea how to accomplish this. Again, this is not dependent on the use of Directory Opus - anyone using something other than Explorer may want to simulate the BC context menu in their preferred file manager via BC's command line switches. If anyone has any ideas, please give a shout

Code:
C:\Program Files\Beyond Compare 3\BCompare.exe" /left {filepath$}
