Hi George!
I was looking for the same thing a week ago and i ound the following article:

http://www.eclipse.org/articles/article.php?file=Article-act ion-contribution/index.html

For further searching, i suggest you should search for "eclipse context menu contribution".

Greetings

If you start freshly I strongly recommend to use commands combined with
the org.eclipse.ui.menus extension point instead. A good tutorial can be
found here:

http://www.vogella.de/articles/EclipseCommands/article.html

You will find that it also describes context menus.
