Navigate to a folder by pasting a path somehow?

[buckley]

Hi there,

Is there an easy way to past the path on the clipboard to TC? Somewhat like in the browser where you can hit Ctrl-L and past the address.

(I have look into the hotkeys but it is not there)

You can click on the address bar (where the path is shown) and paste !

If you want just a hotkey, you can also make a user command that use nircmd from nirsoft !
ex em_GoToCLIP

Code: Select all

command: <P_athTo>\nircmd.exe
parameters:exec %%commander_exe%%  /O "~$clipboard$"

Hi nsp,

I was looking for a way to do it with a keyboard as I most actions in TC are possible with keys withouth ever touching the mouse (that's why I have a distaste in explorer).

Does nircmd start a new instance of total commander of does it set the path in the current open TC?

I will try it later on my home pc (firewall@work)

Kr, Tom

After you've copied the path to the clipboard,

1 Right Arrow
this puts you in the command line
2 type CD +{space}
3 type Ctrl-V
4 type {Enter}

You're there with only the keyboard !!!

Enjoy,

buckley,
You can assign any shortcut to command for editing current path where you can paste copied path. Configuration, Misc., Redefine hotkeys: choose a hotkey (e.g. Alt+Up) and then select command cm_EditPath, then click green arrow button and OK.

By default you can just type "cd " and then press Ctrl+V and Enter because quick search is set to Alt+letters.

Hmm.... You do need to be inside the command line. Especially if, as is the case over here, quick search is set to Letters only. <s>

Thanks for reacting, though !

eitang,
Default quick search mode (and the one I prefer since Norton Commander) is Alt+Letters (and I've mentioned it) so any simple typing goes directly to command line so command typing is very convenient.

MVV,

I understood you very well. Just pointed out that I use [Letter] only.

BTW, I used NC very little and preferred ELFTree...
