There are several source examples for those who want to use Total Commander plugins in their applications.

Here is a comment by the author of Total Commander [1]:

I don't have anything against other authors implementing the Total Commander plugin interface. To the contrary, it's very good - the more programs support it, there more plugins will be available, so Total Commander users will benefit too!


Lister plugins (WLX)

  • ATViewer (component is also available on Torry.net): Delphi source. Special component developed which allows to use Lister plugins in your Delphi applications. The almost complete Lister interface is implemented.
  • WLX2FAR - FAR plugin: C++ source. Plugin for FAR Manager.
  • FileCommander: C++ source. FileCommander is a separate file manager on SourceForge, similar to TC, which supports Lister and Content plugins.

Packer plugins (WCX)

  • WCX Test: C source. Very simple implementation of Packer interface, many functions are missed.
  • WCX Connector - FAR plugin: C++ source. Plugin for FAR Manager.
  • cmdTotal: ASM source. Total Commander WCX packer plugins from a command line.

File-system plugins (WFX)

  • WFX2FAR - FAR plugin: C++ source. Plugin for FAR Manager.
  • WfxWrapper - SC addon: C++ source. The official addon for SpeedCommander, which make it possible to use WFX plugins under SC. The page is in German, use auto-translator to read it.
  • WFX All Plugins: Delphi source. Not finished implementation of FS interface. This plugin allows to use other FS plugins through it. If file is missed, contact Pavel Dubrovsky for details.

Content plugins (WDX)

  • WDX Guide: Delphi source. Correct Content interface implementation, but not the latest version - changing of custom columns values is not supported.
  • SuperWDX: Delphi source. Based on WDX/WLX Guide.
  • FileCommander: C++ source. FileCommander is a separate file manager on SourceForge, similar to TC, which supports Lister and Content plugins.
  • WDX Test: C source. Total Commander Content plugins from a command line.
