More copy path options
More copy path options
Copy path options should include DOS-style (back-slashes), Unix-style (forward-slashes), and UNC paths. You should also be able to copy the full path including filename instead of just the enclosing directory.
Maybe copy path or full name to a specified file
A function to copy path or full name from a selection of multiple files to a specified file and not to the clipboard.
This way you can use this 'fileslist' directly for VBS or other batch programming.
Maybe the name of the fileslist can be specified in the settings. Or always use the last name saved?

I have a request related to this, which is that when the full path is copied, there should be an option to expand the drive letter to give a path that can be used by other people. I often need to send people links to folders on shared network drives, and currently have to manually replace the drive letter in the path after pasting, and many of our servers have tricky to remember names.
E.g. if I want to copy and paste the path of F:\folderA\folderB\ I would like it to be expanded to \\servername\sharename\folderA\folderB\ so I can send it to other people who may not have the same share mapped as the same drive letter.

Ah! I was misunderstanding how it works!mjcarman wrote:That's what the "UNC" menu entries do.stevei wrote:when the full path is copied, there should be an option to expand the drive letter
I thought that when you right clicked, you were setting the mode which would be used from then onwards, i.e. I was right clicking and picking an option, then going to the address bar and right clicking again to choose "Copy to clipboard" thinking that it would use the method from my previous right click on the button.
But I see now that isn't how it works, and when you right click on the button it actually copies it to the clipboard at that time, and as you say, the contents of the clipboard are then how I want them. By subsequently right clicking on the address bar and choosing "Copy to clipboard" I was overwriting the correct clipboard contents with new contents that don't have the drive letter expanded.
Thanks.
