Is there a way to make a batch file to substitute a value in

Then, add new rows to register new path abbreviations.

Better, use an appropriate scripting or programming language...

Ideally:  right click on a file, and select "shorten path", to
either 1) generate and register a new, abbreviated "short path",
or 2) select an existing short path, to prevent duplicates --
and also, choose either:  3) place this abbreviated path in the
clipboard, or 4) paste it at the current cursor location.

Heck, I do this with TC all the time. That's Total Commander
