'Clip' - Program Help start.
Clip or the Clip key (C) will copy the selected text or filename(s) to the clipboard.
You can then use Paste in the menus of many applications to insert the copied text.
ALTERNATIVE Shift+Insert will usually work wherever you are typing text.
The menu item will only be available when there is a valid selection in the current section. The caption on the menu will include the first part of what will be clipped.
What is clipped depends on the window with the focus. If the file list window has the focus, it also depends on the Current Section.
File List.
Directory Tree.
Text Section or Show Text pop up window has the focus.
File List.
The full path and file name of the selected directory or file will be copied.
The line selected in BLUE will be used if any. If no lines are selected in BLUE, the GREEN selection will be used.
If more than one directory and file are selected then a list separated by commas will be copied.
Use Ctrl+C to clip only the filename/type (not the path) of the first selected file. Selected directories will be ignored with Ctrl+C.
TIP When saving or opening a file in another application. Windows Open/Save dialog is often unhelpful/slow.The count of files/dirs and first part of the list clipped will be shown in the list of results in the status bar (if shown).
Use K-free to find the file/directory required and K-free Clip to copy the path and file name:
1. Use Alt+Tab to transfer to K-free, select the single file and press C.
2. Alt+Tab back to the save/Open dialog box
3. Press Shift+Ins to insert the full path and file name in the Filename box.
Directory Tree.
The full path of the selected directory or drive will be copied.
The first part of the name copied will be shown in the list of results in the status bar (if shown).
Text Section or Show Text pop up window has the focus.
The selected text will be copied.
Text can be selected by holding the shift key down whilst you move the cursor (using up/down/left/right/PgUp/PgDn/Ctrl+End/Ctrl+Home).
Text can also be selected using the mouse by holding the left mouse button down and dragging the mouse on the text. If you drag the mouse beyond the start or end of the text currently displayed, text will be scrolled as well as added to the selection.
All text selected will be copied to the clipboard. If the file is very large, it is possible you selected many megabytes of data. In this case the file will be read to copy the text and progress will be shown on the status bar if option "Show Progress .." is checked on the Windows/Status Bar menu. You can press Esc to stop reading a large file.
WARNING. If you read more than 2 or 3 Mbytes, many applications will malfunction (or Windows will crash) when you try to paste the text. K-free can be used without problems to read files of several hundred Mbytes however opening such a file with Wordpad for example will crash windows.
