Copy selected file name without the extension to Clipboard

[Andre Linoge]

Good day.
We have the option to rename a file, without the ectension.

Is it also possible to select the file without the extension??

TIA

No, there is no such option.
What is the reason for this question ?

I create html-files for images and i need to replace "name" with the filename therefor i need to remove the extension.
Rather tidious job.

<title>Name</title>
<img src="Name.jpg" alt="">

That can be done with the TC Multi Rename function.

How is your work flow?

Do you always work on one single file,
or do you have to get the base name of many files at once?


Test this out, I think that should work:


For one file you can use this button:

Code: Select all

TOTALCMD#BAR#DATA
cmd /c
echo %O | clip
%Commander_Path%\WCMICONS.DLL,7


1
-1

For a few files (up to 50) you can use this button:

Code: Select all

TOTALCMD#BAR#DATA
cmd /c
del %tmp%\tmp && for /F "tokens=*" %%F in ('type %F') do (@echo %%~nF >> %tmp%\tmp) && type %tmp%\tmp | clip
%Commander_Path%\WCMICONS.DLL,7


1
-1

But better we source this out to an batch file and call that batch from the button. (here the last command is executed for every file instead of one time only)


You can also use this commands in usercmd.ini to be able to add keyboard shortcuts.




@Christian .G.:
I think this thread is another request for some more base-name-only commands and parameters, like:
%o = write list with base names of all selected items (like %O)
and
cm_CopyBaseNamesToClip (like cm_CopyNamesToClip)

There was a nice trick from user white:

- Select your files.
- Open the Multi Rename Tool.
- Rename Mask:

Code: Select all

#[N]#[N].[E]

- Leave Extension empty.
- Search for:

Code: Select all

#(.*)#(.*)

- Replace with:

Code: Select all

<title>$1</title> <img src="$2" alt="">

- [x] RegEx
- <F10> "Edit names..."
- Copy the result from the editor into your HTML-file.
