What is HobComment XP Shell Extension ?

It's a little extension for your Microsoft Explorer. It permits you to add a new column displaying the comments for each one of your files and directories. (This feature is already contained in Windows 2000 but not in Windows XP anymore).

You can now change the column title in editing this registry key :
HKCR\CLSID\{586B1DED-828A-4CFE-B6B9-6B5E49DBB6E3}\ColumnTitle.

If you use a non NTFS disk or if you want to version your comments you can now edit your Desktop.ini, add a [.Descriptions] section and add a line filename=comment.
Example:

[.ShellClassInfo]
Infotip=Comment for this directory

[.Descriptions]
hello.doc=Comment for the hello.doc file
				

This freeware is a beta version.
