How best to integrate TeraCopy

Help & Support
1

I have the following context menu items:

Settings/File Types/'All files and folders'/Drop menu/
Create New Folder to MOVE to
dopusrt /cmd Copy MOVE TO HERE CREATEFOLDER "{dlgstring|Specify folder-name to MOVE items to...: {d}|{d}}"

Create New Folder to COPY to
dopusrt /cmd Copy TO HERE CREATEFOLDER "{dlgstring|Specify folder-name to COPY items to...: {d}|{d}}"

and

Settings/File Types/'All files'/Drop menu/
Copy MOVE CREATEFOLDER "{dlgstringS|Name of Folder to move to...|{file$|noext}}"

Create Filenamed Folder to COPY to...
Copy CREATEFOLDER "{dlgstringS|Name of Folder to copy to...|{file$|noext}}"

TeraCopy has been installed under F:\TeraCopy.

a) IF at all possible .. I'd like TeraCopy to handle this (and see whether it indeed it will improve copy actions)

Should I simply edit and reply 'copy' with f:\teracopy\teracopy.exe ?
How to update the above so it will use Teracopy.exe ?

b) will ctrl-c/ctrl-v work?

thanks!

No. Opus's Copy command has a completely different syntax to teracopy.exe

Have you looked at the existing threads about TeraCopy on the forum, particularly the one in the Buttons & Toolbars forum?

Later and on second thought: I am not sure whether I will use TeraCopy.
Have run some tests:
-copy 3 folders total 18,6GB of a fair mix of small and large files to 1 subfolder - TC: 6:18
-same stuff but then using Windows copy : 6:10
-and again, same stuff, using TeraCopy: 6:14

(Windows7)

The only pro would be that TeraCopy will try several times may skip any locked files and not stop...

TeraCopy also has the possibility to put files in queues! This is really useful sometimes.

A way to integrate it is to put it in the Drag-n-Drop menu for all files and folders....
so you can use it with right click drag-n-drop, and still keeping your usual copy method.

Here's the code I have for both entries of the drag-n-drop menu:

TeraCopy COPY

TeraCopy

TeraCopy MOVE

TeraCopy MOVE

And here is the User command for TeraCopy:
model: MOVE/S,CLIP/S
Standard Function

@nodeselect /dopscripts\TeraCopy.exe &MOVE:Move:Copy& "&CLIP:*{clip}:*{allfilepath|filem}&" &CLIP:{sourcepath}:{destpath}&

Hope this helps!

Well, I guess you can forget about the CLIP argument, it was a test to replace the usual Copy command (using stuff from the clipboard), but i'm almost sure this part doesn't work.....
