ClipPath - grab a file's path from context menu
It seems like references to ClipPath have shown up all over the place, and I'm not sure where I first saw of it. I bookmarked the link, and finally came back to check it out, and I've got to say it's a simple, and great idea. (Doesn't it seem like most great ideas are simple?) Anyway, ClipPath gives you a context menu option to grab the full path to a file from within Windows Explorer. The most obvious use of this is for users of web-based email services, who have to use the awkward "file open" dialog box to navigate to a file on their system to attach it to an email. This little utility allows the user to simply right-click on the file (however they navigated to it), copy the path, then paste the path into the appropriate field in their web-based email program, and voila. Simple as that. And for those of us that bounce around between different browsers, it's nice to have a little hack that enhances a web service that works on any browser.
