Notepad++: how to get filename / path of current file and put it into the clipboard in notepad plus plus

Editing files with VIM I can easily copy & paste the name ( or the full path ) of the file I'm working on ( to understand what I mean about VIM you can see: this question or wiki );

Is there an equivalent solution by using Notepad++ ?, how can I do?

Solution

  • Notepad++ has no default shortcut to do that, but:

    open menu: "Edit" (Alt-E) then select: "Copy to clipboard" and you have different options to copy the fully qualified file name for current document or parts of it.

    See this wiki for exhaustive reference.
