Copy/Move Button

Buttons/Scripts

1

I've been evaluating Directory Opus for about two weeks now, and it's got just about everything that I need/want in a file manager, except one thing: a single button/menu for copying/moving things to a specific folder that I don't already have a tab open to. So I made one.

It's a simple menu that has two sub-menus, one for copying and one for moving. Each sub-menu has a button that opens a standard DOpus copy/move dialogue, as well as a sub-menu that lists your favorite places.

Please critique/suggest/praise me as you see fit.

You say "button/menu for copying/moving things to a specific folder that I don't already have a tab open to"

Perhaps, I don't understand your request but let me give it it a go.

First, the script is lovely but if all you want to do is copy/move something to a specified folder, then these will work:

Copy
Copy TO "Your path here with this as a sample T:\Software\Wallpaper2\BingSnap"

Move
Copy Move TO "Your path here with this as a sample T:\Software\Wallpaper2\BingSnap"

What have I missed?
