Key to go to directory in clipboard

Post by *buckley »

I don't know if anyone of you use this but in most browsers (Ctrl-B in Opera) you can follow a link that's in the clipoard and it's darn handy.

Fe, if I have c:\temp\userX\applicationY on the clipboard I could type Ctrl-B and TC would go to that map.

Hi and Welcome!

actually that's possible, although not with a single keypress:
1. using the commandline:
type 'cd ' there, paste your directory and press ENTER twice.

2. without commandline:
click on the bar showing the current path above the file panel (or press SHIFT+F6 fo rename when the cursor is on the dir-up entry [..]). Then the path will become editable and you can paste the clipboard content. Press ENTER twice and TC will go to that path.

It can be done using an external tool : nircmd
(dowload here)

you define a user command like em_GotoClipPath

Code: Select all

command : <PATH TO>\nircmdc.exe
parameters: execmd  start "Goto Clip" "%%commander_path%%\totalcmd.exe"  /O "~$clipboard$"
You can affect the command to a hotkey or a button !

That's the Firefox way to do it (slow :P).
TC for Linux please!
