Add menu item to Nautilus context menu on selected packages?

Hi,
i have a tool that works on packages.
So far i added a wizard to the world menu, but i would rather add a menu
item to the Nautilus context menu on selected packages - is this possible?

Best regards,
Martin.

Quite easy indeed. Thank you.
Is there any system behing the ordering of menu entries?

Martin.

I have one follow-up question trying to understand how this works:
I see that <nautilusXXXMenu> is used in AbstractNautilusUI to build the
menus — but why is <contextMenu> here? Also the code seems to work all the
same without <contextMenu>?

Here is an example from Nautilus

AbstractNautilusUI class>>packagesMenu: aBuilder

<contextMenu>

<nautilusGlobalPackageMenu>
| package target |
target := aBuilder model.

(package := target selectedPackage) ifNil: [ ^ target ].

(aBuilder item: #'Browse scoped')
keyText: 'b, s' if: Nautilus useOldStyleKeys not;
action: [ target restrictedBrowsePackage ];
order: 1000;
help: 'Open a browser on a restricted view';
withSeparatorAfter.
