Internal:DevSources:DropPath ƒ:DropPath Release:This is a folder:
It is possible to drop so many files on this that it runs out of memory. Nothing bad happens but you will see empty lines after the point of no more memory. I’ve set it at 500k so it can handle my largest folders full of headers.
Why?
Sometimes I want to send a message to someone asking them to take a look at a file on a disk or server. Sending an alias is the best way, but it’s nice to have the text of the full path in the message as well.
Credits
This is really just a copy of a utility called “Path To Clip” by Lawrence D’Oliveiro. Unfortunately, the only version I could track down is 1.0d2 and that crashes my PowerMac at work.
The real credit goes to MetroWerks who provided 99.9% of this application as a PowerPlant sample.
The other bit comes from an Apple DTS sample. The rest was glued together by Peter Marks, peterm@jolt.mpx.com.au.
