Subject: FileHierToClipCMPlugin 1.0 - CMM to obtain a file hierarchy
FileHierToClipCMPlugin is a Mac OS contextual menu plugin that can generate
a text representation of a file/folder hierarchy and place it on the
Clipboard.
Once installed, when a contextual menu is invoked (control-click)
FileHierToClipCMPlugin checks if the contextual menu was invoked on a file
or folder (or any other Finder item). If so, a "Copy File Hierarchy to
Clipboard" menu item is added to the contextual menu. Upon selecting this
menu item, if the clicked upon item is a file, the file's name is placed on
the Clipboard. If the clicked upon item is a folder (or a disk), a textual
representation of the hierarchy of files and folders within the clicked upon
folder is generated and placed on the Clipboard. Invisible items are
ignored. Once the text is on the Clipboard, you can then paste it wherever
text can be pasted.
For example, the output of the FileHierToClipCMPlugin distribution folder is
as follows (+'s signify folders, -'s signify files):
