Synchronize Dirs: Copy Selected Names to Clipboard

Post by *Brat.Hering »

Hi,

i am missing the following functions in Synchronize Dirs:
- Copy filenames to clipboard (2017)
- Cops names with full path (2018)
- Copy names with UNC path (2021)
- Copy all shown columns (2036, 2037, 2038)

These functions should exist for the left side and for the right side. The best access to them would be a contextmenu in the header or a button for each side with a contextmenu.

The selected rows are copied to clipboard depending on the selected function. The selection of missing files will result in an empty row. If the user does not like this he should not select an empty row:-)

Bye
Dirk

I miss some functions of the Explorer standard context menu there,
most of all "Open" (in Explorer; there I have a self defined entry "Open in TC" which can be used with another running instance of TC).

This may be a problem because there are two files per line,
but should be possible when a directory entry is selected.

The above could be used as workaround (especially "- Copy names with full path (2018)"), so:
Support.


P.S.: Also useful for content-comparing single files in SyncDirs:

They are the number of the internal command, that you can use in Buttons in the buttonbar, in the Main menu and for Keyboard remapping (shortcuts). The numbers all have a corresponding cm_command which you find listed in the Totalcmd.inc file or you can see them by running the internal command cm_CommandBrowser

So 2017 is the same as cm_CopyNamesToClip and you can freely use one or the other. It is a benefit to use numbers in the menu (.mnu files), because TC will just ignore numbers that does not exist as a command, whereas you will get and error message when using a cm_command that does not exist. You can also use numbers that are valid commands, but are not listed in totalcmd.inc for example 5022.

You can also use the commands in the Start menu and in the Directory hotlist, and aslo in View modes.
