Script: Create action to open a file...
As per @hopi's request here: http://forum.cockos.com/showthread.php?t=189037
Allows you to browse for a file (or a folder) and then generates a ReaScript to open it in the appropriate app. Could be used for folders you frequently access, or filling a toolbar with shortcuts to the manuals for your favorite plugins, etc, etc.
Available on ReaPack, or manually: Lokasenna_Create action to open a file... .lua
Enjoy.

Ok ...so tested and it's pretty insane that it works as it does...
and yet, it makes me ask this:
Can we have one that does the same thing but does not go to the individual file level? In other words, it will just let us choose a given folder to open and save that as a new script?

Read the first message that pops up. 
Reaper doesn't give me a way to pop up a "Choose a folder" dialog. Or a "Save As" dialog, for that matter.

Updated, automatically adds the new script to the Action List.

ummm OK thanks for explaining this....
It is indeed quite amazing that it can open a given file and automatically write the new script...
At the same time it is not all that useful for me to open a 'file'... I need to open a folder... without leaving being inside reaper...
hmmm.... I wonder if it would open a shortcut.... I'll test that in a moment

Now come on, that really is just showing off! For goodness sake man, tone it down. You're making the rest of us look bad!
