Enhancement idea: Grab text from image via context menu #8

I think it would be useful to have an option to have Text Grab integrate into the Windows context menu so you could right click on an image file and grab the text quickly.

I like this idea, very simple and quick which is the spirit of Text Grab. I'll look into how much work this would require.

I have done some initial work on this but it looks like the context menu extension from SharpShell (https://github.com/dwmkerr/sharpshell) does not support .netcore3.1 yet. I'll keep an eye out for other routes or updates to that package.
