Clipboard
The Clipboard internal command can be used to:
Copy and paste files and folders from one folder to another
Copy the names of selected files and folders to the clipboard
Paste image or text data from the clipboard as files on disk
Paste files, image or text data from the clipboard into archives (either new or existing)
Command Arguments:
ADD
/S
(no value)
Adds additional files to those already on the clipboard instead of replacing them. It is used in conjunction with COPY or CUT. This lets you place multiple items on the clipboard from different source folders, and then paste them into the desired destination folder in one go.
Example: Clipboard COPY ADD
AS
/K
<filename>
Overrides the default filename used when pasting images or text to disk.
Normally when you paste clipboard image data, Opus creates a file called Clipboard Image.png (or another suffix, depending on the file format), and when you paste text data, Opus creates a file called Clipboard Text.txt. Use this argument to change the filename.
If no extension is specified in the filename, the default file extension (e.g. .txt for text data) will be added automatically.
You can specify a full path to make the command always save to a particular folder instead of the current path.
This argument can also be used when pasting the clipboard contents as an archive (e.g. with Clipboard PASTE=zip). In this case the filename for the archive is normally generated automatically from the clipboard contents - this argument lets you override it.
Example: Clipboard PASTE AS PastedData
ask
When pasting image or text data to a file, this argument causes Opus to prompt you for a name for the created file. For text you can also choose the encoding type and in the case of image data, the image format to use.
This argument can also be used when pasting the clipboard contents as an archive (e.g. with Clipboard PASTE=7z). In this case you will be prompted for the name of the new archive and any archive format-specific parameters.
The Shrink image to compensate for system DPI option will scale the pasted image down if your system DPI is higher than 100%.
You can also specify the default filename to be shown in the dialog, as in the second example below.
Example: Clipboard PASTE AS=ask
Example: Clipboard PASTE AS=ask:{date|yyyy_MM}_
COPY
/S
(no value)
Copies all selected files and folders to the clipboard.
Example: Clipboard COPY
COPYCOMMANDARGS
/K
<arguments>
When used with Clipboard PASTE this lets you provide additional arguments for the Copy command (if that's what the paste command ends up running). If the paste command doesn't use the Copy command (e.g. you have bitmap data on the clipboard, and an image file is created instead) then this argument is ignored.
Example: Clipboard PASTE COPYCOMMANDARGS="FLATVIEWCOPY=autosingle,recreate"
COPYIMAGE
/S
(no value)
Copies the selected image file to the clipboard as an image, for pasting into other programs.
Example: Clipboard COPYIMAGE
COPYINFOTIP
/S
(no value)
Copies the text content of the currently visible info tip to the clipboard. (Info tips are the "tooltips" which display information when you hover the mouse over a file or folder).
Does nothing if the lister has no visible info tip. This command only makes sense when assigned to a hotkey, since an info tip will close if you move the mouse to click on a toolbar button.
Example: Clipboard COPYINFOTIP
By default, you can also use Ctrl+Shift+Alt+C to do the same thing without creating a hotkey, but the command lets you give it an alternative, easier to type key. (Ctrl+Shift+C can also work, but is overridden by the default toolbars, which assign Ctrl+Shift+C to Edit > Copy Full Pathnames.)
COPYNAMES
/O
(no value)
Copies the names of all selected files and folders to the clipboard (the file names themselves are copied, in text format, rather than the actual files).
The default format (with no value specified) copies the full path and filename of all selected items to the clipboard, with one file on each line. For example,
The various values for the COPYNAMES argument let you modify the format filenames are copied in. Some values can be combined - see the examples given below for ideas on what you can do. Also see the REGEXP argument which lets you control the format yourself using regular expressions.
Example: Clipboard COPYNAMES
noexts
Removes the extensions from file names copied to the clipboard. For example,
Example: Clipboard COPYNAMES=noexts
nopaths
Copies just the names of selected items to the clipboard - the paths are not copied. For example,
Example: Clipboard COPYNAMES=nopaths
Example: Clipboard COPYNAMES=nopaths,noexts
url
Example: Clipboard COPYNAMES=url
hash
Copies the filename of each selected file along with its MD5 checksum. For example,
Example: Clipboard COPYNAMES=hash
hash2
Copies the MD5 checksum of selected files in an alternative format, one compatible with the venerable MD5Sum utility. For example,
Example: Clipboard COPYNAMES=hash2
hash3
Copies the MD5 checksum of selected files without the filenames. You would probably only want to use this format on a single file at a time. For example,
Example: Clipboard COPYNAMES=hash3
hash4
Copies the filename of each selected file along with its SHA-1 checksum. For example,
Example: Clipboard COPYNAMES=hash4
hash5
Copies the SHA-1 checksum of selected files in an alternative format. For example,
Example: Clipboard COPYNAMES=hash5
hash6
Copies the SHA-1 checksum of selected files without the filenames. You would probably only want to use this format on a single file at a time. For example,
Example: Clipboard COPYNAMES=hash6
hashcache
Add the hashcache keyword to one of the hash options to make Opus use the checksum cache; if the file has previously had its checksum calculated and does not appear to have changed, the cached value will be used.
Example: Clipboard COPYNAMES=hash2,hashcache
unc
When the unc value is specified, and the files whose names are being copied reside on a mapped network drive, the function will resolve their mapped paths to a UNC path and copy that to the clipboard instead. For example, if Z: were a mapped network drive, Clipboard COPYNAMES would return:
Whereas Clipboard COPYNAMES=unc might return:
If the current folder is not on a mapped network drive, the unc argument has no effect.
Example: Clipboard COPYNAMES=unc
short
Copies the short (8.3) versions of selected paths, rather than their long versions. For example,
Example: Clipboard COPYNAMES=short,nopaths
Not all drives have short paths enabled. On drives where short paths are not available, normal long paths will be copied instead.
single
When multiple files are selected, this will copy all the names on a single line (separated by spaces) rather than one item per line. If any item names contain a space, they will be surrounded by quotation marks. For example,
Example: Clipboard COPYNAMES=nopaths,single
paths
Copies just the paths of selected items, without the filenames (the opposite of nopaths). For example,
Example: Clipboard COPYNAMES=paths
For backward compatibility, path is also recognised and does the same thing.
capsemantics
Makes the function behave like the Windows Copy as path context menu command (one file path per line, and lines are always quoted).
Example: Clipboard COPYNAMES=capsemantics
quote
Forces filenames and paths copied to the clipboard to be enclosed with double-quotes even if they don't contain spaces (and therefore ordinarily wouldn't need quotes).
Example: Clipboard COPYNAMES=quote
wsl
Copies file paths in WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux) format. For example, C:\Temp would be converted to /mnt/c/Temp.
Example: Clipboard COPYNAMES=wsl
COPYQUEUE
/O
(no value)
Example: Clipboard PASTE COPYQUEUE
<queue name>
When you specify a queue name as the value for this argument, it enables manual copy queuing when pasting files. That is, with a name specified, file pastes will always be queued to the specified queue - if no name is specified for the argument, pastes will only be queued if needed.
Example: Clipboard PASTE COPYQUEUE=MyQueue
none
Used to disable copy queuing - whether enabled in Preferences, or otherwise enabled by the shift keyword.
Example: Clipboard PASTE COPYQUEUE=none
shift
Lets you specify two alternate parameters for the COPYQUEUE argument. The value specified before the shift keyword is used if the Shift key is not held down - the value after it is used if it is. For example, you could configure a paste button to queue files to a specific queue if the Shift key were held down, and to disable queuing otherwise.
Example: Clipboard PASTE COPYQUEUE=none,shift,MyQueue
quiet
Specify the quiet keyword to suppress the prompt that normally indicates a copy operation has been queued. (Opus 13.9.1 and above: You can also turn off Display confirmation when a job is queued in Preferences.)
Example: Clipboard PASTE COPYQUEUE=MyQueue,quiet
noisy
(Opus 13.9.1 and above.) Specify the noisy keyword to always show a prompt indicating a copy operation has been queued, even if Display confirmation when a job is queued is off in Preferences.
Example: Clipboard PASTE COPYQUEUE=MyQueue,noisy
CUT
/S
(no value)
Cuts all selected files and folders to the clipboard (nothing happens to the files immediately, but when you paste them somewhere else they are moved rather than copied).
Example: Clipboard CUT
CUTNOCOPYQUEUEWHENSAME
/S
(no value)
Used with Clipboard PASTE, this disables the use of a copy queue when the files on the clipboard are being cut (that is, moved), and the source and destination are on the same drive partition.
Example: Clipboard PASTE CUTNOCOPYQUEUEWHENSAME
EXPANDNEWLINES
/S
(no value)
Used with Clipboard SET, allows you to use to insert a new line into the string, so that you can set a clipboard string consisting of multiple lines. You can also use \ to insert a literal backslash.
Example: Clipboard EXPANDNEWLINES SET Hello\nWorld
Example (all on one line): Clipboard EXPANDNEWLINES SET {sourcepath|escbackslash}\n{destpath|escbackslash}
FILE
/K/M
<filename>, ...
Specify the file or files to operate on. If not specified the command will operate on all currently selected files.
Example: Clipboard COPY FILE "C:\moo.zip" "C:\cow.zip"
NEWLINEIFADDING
/S
(no value)
Used with Clipboard ADD SET, adds a new line between the existing clipboard data and the string to be added. If the clipboard is currently blank or has non-text data then the new line is not added.
Example: Clipboard ADD NEWLINEIFADDING SET This is a new line.
NOFROMFOCUS
/S
(no value)
The default behaviour for the Clipboard command is to operate on either the source file display, or the Folder Tree, depending on which one has the input focus. This lets you use the same command to copy folders in the tree as well as files in the file display. Specify this argument to force the command to always operate on the source file display and ignore the folder tree.
Example: Clipboard COPY NOFROMFOCUS
PASTE
/O
(no value)
Pastes any files and folders previously copied to the clipboard into the current Lister.
If the files were placed on the clipboard by a "cut" operation they will be moved, otherwise they will be copied to the new location.
Can also paste image and text data from the clipboard into new files in the current folder. When pasting image and text data, the AS argument can change the name and path of the created file.
Example: Clipboard PASTE
enc:<encoding>
Specifies the encoding type when pasting text from the clipboard to a file. The default behaviour is to paste as UTF-16 if the clipboard text is Unicode, otherwise as ANSI.
Supported encoding types are oem, ansi, utf8, utf8nobom, utf16, utf16nobom.
Example: Clipboard PASTE=enc:utf8
jpg
Forces image data on the clipboard to be pasted in JPEG format (overriding the Preferences default setting). You can optionally specify the JPEG image quality, as a value from 1 to 100.
Example: Clipboard PASTE=jpg:85
png
Pastes image data in PNG format. You can optionally specify the PNG compression level, as a value from 1 to 6.
Example: Clipboard PASTE=png:4
gif
Pastes image data in GIF format.
Example: Clipboard PASTE=gif
bmp
Pastes image data in BMP format.
Example: Clipboard PASTE=bmp
zip
Pastes clipboard contents (files, image or text data) as a new ZIP archive. The filename of the archive will be generated automatically from the clipboard contents - you can override this with the AS argument.
7z
Pastes clipboard contents as a new 7Zip archive.
<archive suffix>
Pastes clipboard contents as a new archive of the specified type (you can specify any archive suffix that Opus supports creation of).
PASTELINK
/O
(no value)
Pastes shortcuts to any files and folders previously copied to the clipboard into the current Lister. For example, if you use the Clipboard COPY command on the C:\Windows folder, navigate to another folder, and run the Clipboard PASTELINK command, it would paste a shortcut called Windows - Shortcut.lnk.
Example: Clipboard PASTELINK
junction
Creates a junction to any folders that are on the clipboard. Junctions are only supported on NTFS volumes, and you can not create junctions to files - only folders.
Example: Clipboard PASTELINK=junction
hardlink
Creates a hardlink to any files that are on the clipboard. Hardlinks are only supported on NTFS volumes, and you can not create hardlinks to folders - only to files.
Example: Clipboard PASTELINK=hardlink
softlink
Creates a softlink to any files or folders that are on the clipboard. Note that the link target is stored as an absolute path. Soft links support both files and folders, but are only supported on Vista and above (and again, only on NTFS volumes). Creating a softlink requires administrator access so Opus will display a UAC prompt if necessary when you run this command.
Example: Clipboard PASTELINK=softlink
relsoftlink
Creates a softlink to any files or folders that are on the clipboard, storing a relative target path if possible. A regular absolute link will be created if the target can not be expressed relative to the link.
Example: Clipboard PASTELINK=relsoftlink
auto
Automatically determines the most suitable type of link to create. On Vista and above, this will be a softlink - on Windows XP, either a junction or a hardlink depending on the type of item. If a non-filesystem object is on the clipboard (e.g. you are trying to make a link to a virtual folder like the Control Panel) or the target drive is not formatted with NTFS then it will create a shortcut.
Example: Clipboard PASTELINK=auto
autonosoft
Does the same as auto except that it will not try to create softlinks. In other words: It will create either a junction or a hardlink depending on the type of item. If a non-filesystem object is on the clipboard (e.g. you are trying to make a link to a virtual folder like the Control Panel) or the target drive is not formatted with NTFS then it will create a shortcut.
Example: Clipboard PASTELINK=autonosoft
PREFERIMAGE
/S
(no value)
When pasting data from the clipboard into a new file, image data is normally given priority over text data. Opus makes an exception to this rule in certain situations.
For example, if you use Microsoft Excel and copy some cells to the clipboard, Excel puts both the text from the cells and a screenshot of them into the clipboard. When pasting data from Excel, people usually want the text, not the screenshot. Accordingly, when Opus detects that pasted data is from Excel it gives text priority over images, contrary to its behaviour with data from other programs.
If the PREFERIMAGE argument is specified, image data will always be given priority over text data, regardless of where the data came from. This allows you to paste the image data from Excel, if that's what you want. (You'll still get a text file if there is only text data on the clipboard.)
Example: Clipboard PASTE PREFERIMAGE
PREFERTEXT
/S
(no value)
When pasting data from the clipboard into a new file, image data is normally given priority over text data. (There are exceptions to this rule; see the PREFERIMAGE argument, above.)
Normally, if another program puts both text and image data into the clipboard and you then paste in Opus to save the data into a new file, the text data will be ignored and you'll get an image file (BMP, JPG, GIF or PNG).
For example, a paint program may place both a photo and a description of the photo into the clipboard, and pasting into Opus would normally create an image file containing the photo, not a text file containing the description.
The PREFERTEXT argument gives text priority over images, so you'll get a text file in that situation instead. (You'll still get an image file if there is only image data on the clipboard.)
Example: Clipboard PASTE PREFERTEXT
REGEXP
/K/M
<search> <replace> ...
The values specified for this argument are one or more pairs of strings - the first of each pair is the pattern to search for, and the second of each pair is the replace string. For example, to strip off the suffixes of all filenames when they are copied to the clipboard, the search string would be (.*)\(.*) and the replacement string would be \1.
Example: Clipboard COPYNAMES=nopaths REGEXP "(.*)\\(.*)" "\1"
SCREENSHOT
/O
(no value)
Takes a screenshot of the active Lister and copies it to the clipboard. Equivalent to pushing Alt+PrtScr.
Example: Clipboard SCREENSHOT
all
Takes a screenshot of the desktop and copies it to the clipboard. Equivalent to pushing PrtScr.
Example: Clipboard SCREENSHOT=all
format
When the save argument is specified this lets you specify the file format to save the screenshot in. Supported formats are jpg, png, gif and bmp.
Example: Clipboard SCREENSHOT=save,format:jpg
name
When the save argument is specified this lets you configure the name to save the screenshot to. If not specified a default name is used. You can insert the current date in the name using the %date% code. Remember to enclose value of the SCREENSHOT argument in quotes if your desired name contains spaces.
Example: Clipboard SCREENSHOT=save,name:My_Opus_%date\\
Example: Clipboard SCREENSHOT "save,name:Opus Screenshot"
quality
When the save argument is specified and the screenshot is saved as a jpeg image, this lets you specify the quality of the compressed image (as a value from 1 to 100).
Example: Clipboard SCREENSHOT=save,format:jpg,quality:85
If the screenshot is saved as a PNG image, you can use this to control the compression level (as a value from 1 to 6).
Example: Clipboard SCREENSHOT=save,format:png,quality:4
quiet
Does not display a confirmation message after taking the screenshot.
Example: Clipboard SCREENSHOT=all,quiet
save
The screenshot will be saved to the desktop automatically (as well as copied to the clipboard). Use the format and quality arguments to control the file type. You can configure the name with the name argument.
Example: Clipboard SCREENSHOT=save
secure
Filenames will be blurred in the Lister when the screenshot is taken, to obscure potentially sensitive information.
Example: Clipboard SCREENSHOT=all,secure
time
Displays a countdown timer before taking the screenshot.
Example: Clipboard SCREENSHOT=secure,time:10
SET
/K/R
user defined
Copies the supplied text to the clipboard.
Example: Clipboard SET {sourcepath}
USESEL
/S
(no value)
Modifies the behaviour of the PASTE and PASTESHORTCUT functions. Normally files are pasted into the current source folder. If you specify the USESEL argument and a sub-folder is currently selected in the source file display, the files will be pasted into that sub-folder. This is most useful when used as a context menu command (so that you can right-click on a folder and paste the clipboard contents into it).
Example: Clipboard PASTE USESEL
