Just finished (well, as far as I can go) my first plugin for FAR Manager 2.0 Unicode (x64/x86).
The plugin is called FolderMan and provides a list of favourite folders and the ability to quickly jump to these folders in the file panels - similar to the old DirectDirectory x86 ASCII plugin.
In addition to this it also provides access to jump to most Windows Shell Folders (My Documents, Program Files, Windows, User Profile, etc.) - similar to the Special Locations x86 ASCII plugin.
All this in one plugin, but wait...there's more

Actually, this is a bit broken right now because the API does not provide the needed functionallity...The problem is that the API does not provide a means to determine which side the disks menu is shown for (ie. left/right), so for now (until the API is extended) choosing an entry on the disks menu set's the path of the ACTIVE panel, regardless of which side the Disks Menu was shown for. PS: If anyone knows of a way to do this with the current 2.0 API please let me know...
This is for the UNICODE version (ie. v2.0) of FAR Manager Only. There will NEVER be an ASCII version, as it is way too much work to do that conversion, and besides, there are many alternatives out there in the form of existing plugins. If someone wants to do an ASCII port, let me know and I will provide the source code.
Hope this is usefull to someone other than me

Please let me know if you find any bugs...and I'll squash them asap
