You should first register a client loaded event:

<GleamTech:FileManager ID="fileManager" runat="server" ClientLoaded="fileManagerLoaded" > ...

Then in the host page you should add this javascript function:

function fileManagerLoaded(sender, eventArgs) {
var fileManager = sender;

fileManager.ToolBar.imagesPath = "/myimages/";
fileManager.ToolBar.RenderItem(fileManager.ToolBar.AddSeparator());
fileManager.ToolBar.RenderItem(fileManager.ToolBar.AddButton("TestButtonAction", "description", "newbutton.png"));
fileManager.ToolBar.onButtonClick = function (toolBarButton, e) {
switch (toolBarButton.action) {
case "TestButtonAction":
alert("Test button clicked!");
break;
default :
fileManager.onAction(toolBarButton);
}
};

GleamTech.JavaScript.UI.ContextMenuIconsPath["custom"] = "/myimages/";
fileManager.ContextMenus.FileGridRow.InsertMenuItem(fileManager.ContextMenus.FileGridRow.menuItems["OpenWith"].index + 1, "TestMenuAction", "New menu item", "description", "custom:newmenuitem.png");
fileManager.ContextMenus.FileGridRow.onMenuItemClick = function (menuItem, e) {
switch (menuItem.action) {
case "TestMenuAction":
var gridRow = menuItem.menu.target;
var selectedItemName = gridRow.GetCellValue(fileManager.GridView.columns.Name);
alert("Test menu item clicked for item: " + selectedItemName);
break;
default:
fileManager.onAction(menuItem, menuItem.menu.target);
}
};
}

Note that the size for toolbar images is 24x24 and for menu item images is 16x16.
I also recommend you to use Firebug on Firefox to figure out the available properties of the objects found in FileManager API.

Yes, with v4.x, client-side API is changed so you can do it like this from now on:

<head> 
    <script type="text/javascript">
    
        function fileManagerLoading(sender, e) {
          var fileManager = sender;

          fileManager.ribbon.addTab({
              title: "Test tab",
              items: [
                  {
                      title: "Test group",
                      items:[
                          {
                              text: "Test button",
                              iconCls: "", //css class for image
                              icon: "", //or url to the image
                              scale: "small", //or medium or large
                              handler: function () {
                                  var selectedItemNames = Ext.Array.map(
                                    fileManager.currentViewSelection, 
                                    function (item) { return item.data.name; }
                                  );
                                  alert(
                                      "Clicked test button!\n"
                                      + "Current selection:" + selectedItemNames
                                  );
                              }
                          }
                      ]
                  }
              ]
          });

          Ext.override(fileManager, {
              createViewItemContextMenu: function () {
                  var me = this;

                  var menu = this.callParent();
                  menu.add([// or menu.insert(0, [
                      {
                          text: "Test menu item",
                          handler: function () {
                              alert(
                                  "Clicked test menu item!\n"
                                  + "Context menu record:" 
                                  + me.contextMenuRecord.data.name
                              );
                          }
                      }
                  ]);
                  return menu;
              }
          });

          fileManager.centerPane.columns.push({
              text: "Test column",
              dataIndex: "name",

                  return record.data.name;

After v5.5.5 there was this change:

Fixed: ClientLoading event was being fired too late, some functions like fileManager.onViewRefresh are registered as event handlers to internal components so even you override them later the components still referred to the old function reference, so Ext.override was not working. From now on ClientLoading will now fire at the start of initComponent and ClientLoaded at the end of initComponent. ClientLoading should be used for Ext.override calls, ClientLoaded should be called for adding actions, UI elements.

So for addTab to work, you should use fileManagerLoaded event instead of fileManagerLoading event:

<head> 
  <script type="text/javascript">

      function fileManagerLoading(sender, e) {
        var fileManager = sender;

        //Adding a context menu item
        Ext.override(fileManager, {
            createViewItemContextMenu: function () {
                var me = this;

                var menu = this.callParent();
                menu.add([// or menu.insert(0, [
                    {
                        text: "Test menu item",
                        handler: function () {
                            alert(
                                "Clicked test menu item!\n"
                                + "Context menu record:" 
                                + me.contextMenuRecord.data.name
                            );
                        }
                    }
                ]);
                return menu;
            }
        });

        //Adding a column for "Details" view layout
        Ext.override(fileManager, {
            getViewColumnsConfig: function () {
                var columns = this.callParent(arguments);

                columns.push({
                    text: "Test column",
                    dataIndex: "name",
                    tdCls: "x-item-value",
                    renderer: function (value, meta, record) {
                        //you can use the name value as an id to 
                        //get your own corresponding value here
                        //e.g if you have an object customValues 
                        //with file names as key, you can retrieve
                        //and return customValues[record.data.name]
                        return record.data.name;
                    }
                });

                return columns;
            }
        });

      }
      
      function fileManagerLoaded(sender, e) {
        var fileManager = sender;

        //Adding a new ribbon tab
        fileManager.ribbon.addTab({
            title: "Test tab",
            items: [

                            icon: "", //or url to the image
                            scale: "small", //or medium or large
                            handler: function () {
                                var selectedItemNames = Ext.Array.map(
                                  fileManager.currentViewSelection, 
                                  function (item) { return item.data.name; }

Updated code for "Adding a column for "Details" view layout", need to override getViewColumnsConfig so that it works when the initial view layout is "Details" (with the old code, it required switching view layout once to work)
