    Hi to all.
    Is there a way to "copy" only the name of an open file?
    It seems the only copy I could do is the whole "path/filename"...

    Thanks

      There is no other built-in command for copying a file name. You can setup a template which inserts the file name customized into your active file on execution. But if you really want to copy just the name of a file into active clipboard, use a script added to Scripting - Script List with a hotkey for fast execution. The script is very simple, only 1 line.

      UltraEdit.clipboardContent = GetNameOfFile();

      Of course the script is not only 1 line. You have to download FileNameFunctions.js and copy the code of function GetNameOfFile into your script.
