Copy Directory to Clipboard function

blahoo · 05-24-2002, 06:07 AM

When using the Copy Directory to Clipboard function, I get the date in long format, as in : May 22, instead of 22/05/2002. This is although the date displayed in the "Date" column of the directory view is the short date.
This seems like a bug in flashfxp...
I'd be glad to get some answers...

Copy directory to clipboard copies the raw file listing recieved from the ftp server. Which is designed to troubleshoot problems with non-standard list formats.

FlashFXP converts the raw date format into an actual date value so that it can be sorted and is displayed using your windows date format.

but the dir listing dosen't mention the year !
it says : "May 22"
How does flashfxp know the year of the file ?

If the year of the file is the current year then it's not displayed.

can you implement the option to copy only the DIR names instead of all the raw information? it would be useful to easily get a list of all the dirs on the ftp (it works on local already)

To copy only the DIR names:

1) Select ALL the folders that you want to copy

2) Press Spacebar

3) Press Shift + Ctrl + E (this will copy ONLY the DIR names to the clipboard)

4) Open Notepad, Worpad, etc... and PASTE the content (CTRL + V)

5) Don't forget to press (when you finish) Shift + Ctrl + C to CLEAR the clipboard.
