 ===== Using a Total Commander button =====
-''Tutorial under development''
+This is simple: drag "DropIt.exe" to an empty space on //Total Commander//'s button bar and a shortcut is created. Now right-click on this new button and select ''Change...''. In the dialog box type ''%P%S'' to the Parameters field. This will pass paths of selected files to DropIt.

+Now if you select files in //Total Commander// and then click on this button, DropIt will ask you for a profile and will sort your files.
+To further polish this button, you can specify the profile to be used. Add your profile name at the beginning of the Parameter field, so it should read ''-MyProfile %P%S''. Now you can create buttons for your most used profiles and use them without DropIt running in the background.
+**Tip:** instead of using absolute path to DropIt, you can use //Total Commander//'s ''%COMMANDER_PATH%'' variable in the path (only if DropIt and //Total Commander// are on the same drive):
