Copy file plugin

I´m using a JensOfSweden mp3 player that appears as a hard drive in explorer when you plug it into the USB port.

I´d love a plugin that can be configured to copy a file (or many) to a custom predefined path on the right click menu in foobar.

For example, you configure the plugin to copy files to the path L:\  , then you just have to right click on a file and the option: "copy file to <predefined path> appears in the menu.

Problem could be if the path can´t be found, but that shouldn´t be hard to work out, or?

Anyone else who would love to have a plugin like this? If not, I guess I should sit down and learn coding

Good luck. If you have any questions about the SDK, feel free to post them in the development forum. (This topic seemed more appropriate for "3rd party plugins".)

Dude, I already posted a request for the same thing about a month ago...

nobody cares...

Sure, foo_Delete is necessary, but "foo_Copy"?

OOOOH NOOOOOO!

Just kidding, please don't take it seriously.
If my school had choosen to teach C++ instead of Pascal maybe I could have helped you (and me).

An option to choose between 'move' or 'copy' when using Masstagger / rename files with 'Create subdirectories' would have been really really nifty.....

I would love that. For ex. I would see an excellent use when making mp3 CDs. You make a playulist with all your favourite songs and then export them (or copy them) to a directory on your HD. And then you burn them into a CD. So you don't have to look into your HD which file is what if they have rare names...and it's much more comfortable.

Anyway, I guess we should hope that someone with skills in coding (that I do not have) and free time to waste, will be interested in that...

Just drag n drop marked files from your playlist to any folder.

I'm working on this very plugin right now, and I'll have status for you soon.

Or you can use foo_utils which has copy/paste functions. You still need to open an explorer window to paste the file though.

I've check this but it doesn't work for me [Windows WP, foobar 0.8.1, UI colums]. I guess it's because of the UI colums interface. I can't drag anything outside foobar, it just move the song up or down into the playlist.

With Columns UI you'll need to do a ctrl-drag to be able to drag songs outside foobar.

Or just right click. 
But it doesn't work with archived songs (rar&zip)  .
