I can tell you how CopyText works. Main idea is enforcing TC to repaint its window in your own DC in metafile format. After this you have to parse ouput text to extract filenames. I wrote such plugin for copying info from custom views to clipboard.

It doesn't make a sense. TC7 will include own command to copy custom views to clipboard.

Sharing private info?

What kind of info is private? How CopyText works?

Nope. I thought you can't speak of new TC7 features, but info on that feature

TC7 will include own command to copy custom views to clipboard.

was already published.

About CopyText: who told you its algorithm?

Author.

In 1997-1998 CopyText was distributed with sources. I don't use CopyText itself but I remembered its idea and implement it last year while looking way to get info from custom views.
I could say - I dont like this algorithm and it was really nice surprise to get builtin command in TC.
