FilePathToClipCMPlugin is a Mac OS contextual menu plugin that can generate
a text representation of the path to a file/folder and place it on the
Clipboard.

Once installed, when a contextual menu is invoked (control-click)
FilePathToClipCMPlugin checks if the contextual menu was invoked on a file
or folder (or any other Finder item). If so, a "Copy File Path to Clipboard"
menu item is added to the contextual menu. Upon selecting this menu item, a
textual representation of the path from the root volume to the clicked-upon
item is generated and placed on the Clipboard. Once the text is on the
Clipboard, you can then paste it wherever text can be pasted.

For example, the path to the Finder (within the System Folder) might look
something like this:

Macintosh HD:System Folder:Finder

The path to the Animator applet folder on my PowerBook's MRJ install looks
like this:

Macintosh HD:Apple Extras:Mac OS Runtime For Java:Apple Applet
Runner:Applets:Animator:

This is version 1.0 of FilePathToClipCMPlugin.

The price is free, see the documentation for complete details.

Minimum system requirements:
Power Macintosh
Mac OS 8.1 or later
