Dolphin Service Menus

Dolphin Service Menus are a feature of the Dolphin file manager in KDE Plasma desktop environments that allow users to add custom context menu actions for files and directories. These menus enable developers and users to extend Dolphin's functionality by creating scripts or applications that appear as options when right-clicking on items in the file manager. They are commonly used for automating tasks like file conversion, batch processing, or integrating with external tools.
