Hotkey/ button to copy the selected file and/or folder name

Post by *egd »

I use Linux quite a lot and naturally use Gnome Commander as it's the closest thing to Total Commander. Whilst it's a far cry from TC, one thing I've really come to appreciate is the ability to very quickly copy a filename /directoryname and/or pathname with a single click of the mouse - very, very handy if you're needing to capture the file and/or pathname for any purpose.

[Edit] It's copy to clipboard I'm talking about, I should have been clearer.

Any chance we can get something similar in TC?

Copy to clipboard?
Create your own button with one of the following commands:

Code: Select all

cm_CutToClipboard =2007;(32-bit) Cut selected files to clipboard
cm_CopyToClipboard =2008;(32-bit) Copy selected files to clipboard
cm_PasteFromClipboard =2009;(32-bit) Paste from clipboard to current dir
cm_CopyNamesToClip =2017;Copy filenames to clipboard
cm_CopyFullNamesToClip =2018;Copy names with full path
cm_CopyNetNamesToClip =2021;Copy names with UNC path
cm_CopySrcPathToClip =2029;Copy source path to clipboard
cm_CopyTrgPathToClip =2030;Copy target path to clipboard
cm_CopyFileDetailsToClip =2036;Copy all shown columns
cm_CopyFpFileDetailsToClip =2037;Copy all columns, with full path
cm_CopyNetFileDetailsToClip =2038;Copy all columns, with UNC path
Kind regards,
Holger
