Hi Steven,
what you are proposing is to copy files (not names) into the clipboard and
then pasting them into a text editor (field). It's the window manager that
transforms the files into their names while pasting, as some kind of
fallback.
And it's not exactly the needed result, because what is needed are fully
qualified file paths corresponding to the file system, not URLs, e.g.
/home/steve/CVS/Assorted-CVS-Modules/k/krusader/build
instead of
file:///home/steve/CVS/Assorted-CVS-Modules/k/krusader/build
What you are doing in the next step is to rename a correctly named menu
option into something misleading (because it won't be only names that will
be copied into the clipboard).
Nevertheless, changing and compiling the Krusader sourcecode myself is an
interesting option that I did not have in mind before. Maybe I'll try this
just as an experiment. Thanks for that!
Regards
Johannes

Hello, Johannes
Unless I misread your message, I thought that Krusader already did what
you ask, without any "Useractions"
As an experiment, I went to a directory that contains Krusader's source
code, and I did the following:
1. Selected all the directories and files.
2. Right click and select "Copy to Clipboard" from the context menu.
3. Paste the results directly into this email. See below...
file:///home/steve/CVS/Assorted-CVS-Modules/k/krusader/build
...
Now, is the menu option "Copy to Clipboard" as clear as the option in
Total Commander? My opinion is that it is not...
I just tried changing
"addAction(i18n("Copy to Clipboard"))->setData(QVariant(COPY_CLIP_ID));"
to
"addAction(i18n("Copy Names With Path To
Clipboard"))->setData(QVariant(COPY_CLIP_ID));"
in the source code file "krusader/krusader/Panel/krpopupmenu.cpp"
I then recompiled and installed Krusader...
I put a screenshot here:
