Exporting Space Occupied by Subdirs Output

[risk]

I use Shift+Alt+Enter or cm_CountDirContent to calculate space occupied by subfolders. Once displayed, is there a way to export or copy to clipboard Folder name + Space occupied?

I want to maintain usage history by directory to see how it changes over time.

Take a look into "TOTALCMD.INC"

________________Clipboard________________
cm_CopyFileDetailsToClip=2036;Copy all shown columns

I want to maintain usage history by directory to see how it changes over time.

Then a script would be better for that usage.

cm_CopyFileDetailsToClip is what I needed and didn't know existed! Thank you Stefan2.

Dear Stephan,

I do this frequently using the Menu Item "Mark" and then "Copy to clipboard with all details".

When you said to use "cm_..." are you suggesting that we create a button? (I don't know how to execute a cm_ directly without first creating a button). It hadn't occurred to me that some users might prefer buttons over using menus, if that is relevant here. (I'm not advocating anything - I just want to understand.)

You can use this internal "CM_" commands
- as button
- in main menu
- in TCs' command line
- in usercmd.ini to create own "EM_" commands
- in Preferences > Configuration... > Misc. > Define Hotkeys
- with external tools via SendMessage/PostMessage

There can be found many how-to post about this on the forum.
If you need more support, just ask for.
