Copy file name/full file path from Sync dirs and/or Lister

Currently doing some work which requires me to compare multiple files and register the names of some of the changed ones in an external system, I dearly miss a feature to copy the name/path of a file from within the "Synchronize Directories" window.

I do understand it can clutter the already-complex right-click menu, and I could live with the option to F3 / Shift-F3 and copy the filename from within Lister. However, it does not support one :( Doing a Save-As can be possible, although cumbersome, walkaround but it does not provide a solution for when I need the full path of the file...

I think the best solution (and easily implementable) would be to add 2 options to the Edit menu of Lister: "File name to clipboard" and "Full file path to clipboard".

You can use the new rename box in TC8 to copy the name, but you can't currently copy the full path.

Hm... "cm_CopyNamesToClip" and "cm_CopyFullNamesToClip" don't work in there? What's about adding it?
