The plugin is platform independent in principal. It just launches a (configurable) system command to open the shell, file explorer or other user defined command. It also copies path etc. to clipboard. Just open context menu for an Eclipse editor or selected resource in some view:
ATTENTION For EasyShell v2.2 and newer all shortcuts are starting with Alt + E and after releasing one of the letters A, E, C, D, X, O, R, U must be used:
Alt + E, A: Main popup menu shows all commands and multiple commands can be selected (EasyShell v2.1 and older: Alt + E)
Alt + E, E: Main popup menu shows all commands and one commands can be directly selected (EasyShell v2.1 and older: Alt + Shift + E)
Shortcuts that executes the command directly if only one defined or opens a popup menu like Alt + E, E reduced for category:
Alt + E, O: Open - open or show in shell
Alt + E, R: Run - execute in shell
Alt + E, X: Explore - open and select in file browser
Alt + E, C: Clipboard - copy to clipboard
Special and not available if no user defined categories are available:
Alt + E, U: User - user defined category
Special and not available for all OS:
Alt + E, D: Default - open with default application

If path to your tool is not added to PATH variable, please add it or adapt the command in EasyShell!
But you can configure any shell or command you like as long as you can figure out how to run a command to open the shell with given parameters or execute the tool you want.
