How can I add other programs to the PortableApps Menu?

There is a development IDE called ConTEXT that is already set up to be portable - it runs right from the directory it's installed and nowhere else.

Is there a way I can add this to the PortableApps menu?
I would love to be able to write the code to make the paf.exe installer, but unfortunately, I don't have much time. So, if the code is relatively short and sweet, please let me know how.

To add it to the PAM just

To add it to the PAM just put it in a subdirectory of /PortableApps/. A PAF can be in NSIS or just a 7-Zip SFX archive with a .paf.exe extension.
