[dekiblue]

Is there a way to create a keyboard shortcuts that will copy selected file(s) and /or folder(s) to the predefined destination?

To my knowledge the easiest way is :
A) Create a script that do the copy.
B) Create a user command that call the script
C) Assign a Keyboard Shortcut to your user command.

To build your script, you can use a simple editor based on the current file selection. You caan get it inside your editor using a command like:

Code: Select all

command: notepad
parrameter: %L

If you need unicode/utf8 you can use %WL or %UL instead of %L.

As nsp says.
I would try something like:



A+B) Create a script as user command:

\usercmd.ini

[em_CopySelectionToTarget]
cmd=PowerShell
param=TYPE %L | ForEach{ Copy $_ -Recurse 'F:\tmp\predefined destination' }




C) Assign a Keyboard Shortcut to your user command.

Menu > Configuration > Options... > Misc.
Hotkey: choose one
Command: em_CopySelectionToTarget

With Copy works great!

I tried to substitute Copy with Move (I actually have to move those files/folders) but it's not working.

Any idea why?

Thanks!

... with Move ... it's not working.

WHAT is not working?

Use
Command: PowerShell -NoHide to see the error message.

I guess in our case it is "-Recurse is no parameter of MOVE" ?


So modify the PoSh command to:

TYPE %L | ForEach{ Move $_ 'F:\tmp\predefined destination' }

(I actually have to move those files/folders)

Better mention that in first place at your initial post to get the right answer you need. Saves time.

Is there a way to move selected files with similar setup to the 1st, 2nd, 3rd.. OR...etc. TAB on the right side?

Thanks man, that worked like a charm. The problem solved by removing -Recourse parameter.

Thank you very much!
