Adding custom button action in the Admin Context Menu

[Ryan Watts]

Greetings,

How difficult is it to add a custom button action within the context of a piece.

For example I'm writing an email module for a client who would like to send out emails to a specific group with sales related content.
I'm going to write the email templates within the module it'self and give him the option to choose between which type of email he would like to send.

Essentially I would like to add a button within the index of this piece to say Send Mail, or Email. Which that action would send the email via nodemailer.
I believe there were examples of something similar in 0.5 but I want to double check if there are any major differences before I start porting things that ought not be ported .

Kindly,

Ryan

Within the context of the piece... are you thinking, say, in
show.html? Or in the editor?

Hi Tom , 

I'm referring to the editor.

Just published a new HOWTO on this which should be a helpful departure
