Windows file associations?

How would I go about telling windows to associate a given file extension with my program (e.g. save game files)? On mac I can modify the plist and the OS reads that for supported document types, but I have no idea for windows... is there an equivilent I can compile in? Can I do it from code with some registry command? Do I need to create a registry entry and somehow launch that to enter? Not sure the options or how it's normally handled.

Sounds like a new cross-platform module that should be made!
