🚀 Getting Started

What's Included

This template creates a basic WindowSill extension with:

• MySill.cs - A sample Sill that activates when Notepad gets focus
• NotepadProcessActivator.cs - A class that detects when Notepad has the focus.

How It Works

The default extension demonstrates a simple but powerful concept:

1. Process Activation: The MySill class implements ISillActivatedByProcess, which means it will automatically activate when a specific process gets focus on Windows.

2. Notepad Integration: By default, this extension activates when Notepad.exe gets focus. When Notepad is in the foreground, your Sill will appear in the WindowSill interface.

3. Command Button: The Sill provides a button in a list view. When clicked, it simulates pressing Ctrl+N in Notepad to create a new document.

Debugging Your Extension

To debug and test your extension:

1. Press F5 in Visual Studio to start debugging
2. Open Notepad (notepad.exe) on Windows
3. Give focus to Notepad by clicking on it
4. Your Sill will appear in the WindowSill interface
5. Click the command button to trigger the action (sends Ctrl+N to Notepad)
