Hi,
Please point me to a way to :
Copy the current files absolute path to clip board with a key sequence.
Thanks.

You can use the 'Files' toolbar (requires SE v12.0.x) -> select the file and do 'Ctrl-C' or 'Ctrl-INS'. That's it.
If you want to do that quickly on SE commandline you can use these custom macros that I'm using...
The 'ccbf' command copies the full buffername to clipboard. The commands can also be bound to keys.

Code: [Select]

#include 'slick.sh'

// clipboard_type == 'CHAR' , 'LINE' or 'BLOCK'
_command int text_to_clipboard (_str text = '', boolean doAppend = false, _str clipboard_type = 'CHAR', _str clipboard_name = '', boolean quiet = false) name_info(','VSARG2_REQUIRES_EDITORCTL|VSARG2_READ_ONLY)
{
   // s.th. to copy ?
   if ( length ( text ) )
   {
      if ( !doAppend )  push_clipboard_itype (clipboard_type,clipboard_name,1,true);
      append_clipboard_text (text);
      if ( !quiet ) message ( "'" text "' " (doAppend ? "appended" : "copied") " to clipboard [" clipboard_type "]");
      return(0);
   }
   else return(TEXT_NOT_SELECTED_RC);
}

// current tag/symbol
_command void cct ( boolean inclArgs = false ) name_info (','VSARG2_MARK|VSARG2_TEXT_BOX|VSARG2_REQUIRES_EDITORCTL|VSARG2_READ_ONLY)
{
   text_to_clipboard ( current_tag ( false, inclArgs ) );
}

// current buffer
_command void ccb () name_info (','VSARG2_MARK|VSARG2_TEXT_BOX|VSARG2_REQUIRES_EDITORCTL|VSARG2_READ_ONLY)
{
   text_to_clipboard (strip_filename (p_buf_name,'DP'));
}

// current buffer full name
_command void ccbf () name_info (','VSARG2_MARK|VSARG2_TEXT_BOX|VSARG2_REQUIRES_EDITORCTL|VSARG2_READ_ONLY)
{
   text_to_clipboard (p_buf_name);
}

// current source location
_command void ccs ( boolean inclArgs = false ) name_info (','VSARG2_MARK|VSARG2_TEXT_BOX|VSARG2_REQUIRES_EDITORCTL|VSARG2_READ_ONLY)
{
   cur_tag := current_tag ( false, inclArgs );
   cur_src := strip_filename (p_buf_name,'DP') " - " cur_tag " [line " p_RLine "]:";
   text_to_clipboard ( cur_src );
}

Thank you for sharing HS2!
This is exactly what I was looking for.
