Copy full file path+file name in Midnight Commander

Hi!
How can I copy a file's full path with the file name in Midnight Commander?
If I press Ctrl+Alt+Enter it's shows this to me in the command line but I can't copy this route.
If I mark a file with 'Insert' and than if I would like to paste this for example in Mousepad or any other text editor with Shift+Insert or Ctrl+V it isn't works.
(Relatively newbie sitting here so if the answer is complicated please write a step-by-step instruction )

Well,I did a lot of research on the internet and I found the best solution.
- choose the file,press 'Ctrl' + 'Shift' + 'Enter'
- after that you can see the full file path + the file name in the command line (bottom of the screen)
- Select the text with 'Shift' + 'Mouse Left Click' (drag it across the whole command)
- For copy the text, press 'Ctrl' + 'Insert'
- For paste, press 'Shift' + 'Insert'
This is still pretty damn slow,I wanted to do it with a single key combination while the file is selected but it looks impossible.
But at the same time I have started to use Ranger file manager which is also runs from terminal,extremely fast,easy to use and if I press 'Ctrl' + 'Insert' on a file it is copies the full path with the name of the file itself. Just perfect.
I won't mark the thread [SOLVED] because if anybody knows a better method for this in Midnight Commander (with a script or whatnot) maybe will write it down for us. I hope...

Error message: "Can't open file "[File path, file name].key"

If I attempt to open any Keynote files, I now get this error message.
"Can't open file "[File path: file name].key"
To clarify, the text in the square brackets above would be the file path and then the file name.
The file then will appear on the screen, but is unresponsive to any clicks or menu commands.
The files will open successfully on other Macs, so they aren't corrupt.
Also - I've just checked, and opening Keynote and trying to create a new presentation leads to the same problem: All screen menus / buttons are dead - all I can do is drag the window around the screen.
I've tried to reinstall Keynote, but this hasn't resolved the problem.
Is there some corrupt preference file (or similar) that I need to get rid of? Is there an easy way to do a complete uninstall of Keynote so I can try another install? Or is this a symptom of something else?
All ideas gratefully appreciated!

All the issues I describe in my questions around this time re: Keynote were actually symptoms of a soon-to-die laptop. The Hard Disc was corrupting, and Keynote was the first application to be affected.

File Path and Name field does not display correct path

We are using Crystal 2008 along with VS 2005. We embed the special "File Path and Name" field inside our report and it displays the correct path when viewed inside Crystal reports:
C:\Program Files\reports\Chart.rpt
When run through the web and viewed in the DHTML viewer, the file name and path appear as follows:
C:\Windows\TEMP\Chart {02152A43-3339-4C03-A50A-E281E1D391AF}.rpt
How can this be corrected?
Thanks in advance for any assistance.

This is a known issue tracked under ADAPT0000962216. At this time I do not know when this will be resolved, however Service Pack 2 for CR 2008 is targeted to be released by September and this may contain the fix.

Get (variable) file path and name in a text element

How do you get the (variable) file path and name in a text element (label) in LCD? If you save the PDF and afterwards relocate it, it should update the values. Is that actually possible?

Does anyone have any advice on this issue?
Thanks in advance,

"File Path and Name" field not displaying correctly

Post Author: DaveWoo
CA Forum: General
Hello,Here's my situation: I'm currently upgrading from Crystal Reports for Visual Studio .NET 2003 to Crystal Reports for Visual Studio 2005. I have several reports (programmatically generated using VB.NET) that use the "File Path and Name" special field. Now, in the old version of Crystal Reports (2003), the field properly displayed the original file path and name; however, in the new version (2005), the field displays as "C:\DOCUME1\Username\LOCALS1\Temp\Filename{F2459406-3719-4C8B-917C-4A7055A18C76}.tmp" - in other words, the location of the temporary .rpt file.How do I get the "File Path and Name" field to correctly display the path & name of the original file, like it did in the prior version?- Dave

File Path and Name

Hi everyone,
I am scheduling reports in Crystal Reports Server. My reports contain the "Special Field" File Path and Name. However, when the report is sent out via CRS, it prints a different location of where the report actually resides. In CRS, how can I make the file path and name field print the actual location of the report file rather than a rogue location?
Thanks in advance,

What is the correct way to format file paths and names in the structapp file?

I am trying to create a structured application to export fm files as xml, and probably read the xml back to fm.
In the structured application file (structapp), I need to specify the locations of the various files (DTD, read/write, template, etc). I would like to place these files on a shared server so others can use the same structapp file (that is, a cop of it). What is the correct way to format the file paths and names? Can folders folder names and file names have spaces in them? I tried the following, for example:
\\serverName\shareName\folder 1\folder 2\file name.dtd
I use the same format for the template file and the read/write rules file.
When I try to save an fm file to xml, FrameMaker says that it cannot read the DTD; however, the resulting xml file appears to be well-formed. The DOCTYPE element in the resulting xml is formatted with forward slashes and spaces replaced with %20.
I tried using forward slashes and replacing spaces with %20, but then I get an error about reading the read/write rules.
NOTE: I have another structured application to read xml into fm. This application does not have a DTD file. The template and read/write rules files are specified as above. Except for complaining about a lack of a DTD, the application works fine; it even applies an XSLT in the process. Again, when I DO add a DTD to this latter application, I get the same complaint about not being able to read the DTD.
I am using fully patched FrameMaker 9 in Windows XP.
Thanks,
Van

Hi Van,
The XML parser and FrameMaker are not the same thing. The Error Log says which component created which message. The XSL processor is another option that can throw messages. The "\\server\path\some.dtd" syntax in structapps.fm seems to be fine for some tools, as Internet Explorer with XML tools successfully finds the DTD which appears as "//server/path/some.dtd" in the XML. But apparently Xerxes, the XML parser bundled with FrameMaker, does not like this notation.
If you have a path with a drive letter, "H:\path\some.dtd", FrameMaker turns that into "file:///H:/path/some.dtd". It seems, Xerces would like to see "file:/" in front of absolute paths.
This is what I have in structapps.fm:
Template: \\server\path\projecttemplate.fm
DTD: some.dtd
Read/write rules: \\server\path\projectrules.txt
DOCTYPE: …
Entity locations
Entity search paths
1: \\server\path\
In the structapps.fm I have the DTD without path information. The resulting XML (without XSL postprocessing) then contains just the file name with a relative path back to the book folder (when saving a book as XML). It therefore requires the DTD to be available at this place. I handle this using an event script that fires for NotePreSaveXml and copies the DTD to the folder of the original document.
As I always use XSL postprocessing and using XSLT1 it is not possible to have the doctype-system as a parameter I have this in my XSL stylesheet:
<xsl:output doctype-system="some.dtd" />
For the resulting XML the DTD is expected to be in the same folder as the XML file. This is handled by the same event script as above, it therefore copies the DTD to the source and the target folder.
Bottom line: If you want/have to use UNC paths, you have to do some programming to work around a FrameMaker bug.

FTP adapter should take file path and name at runtime..

Hello All,
I have requirement of getting the file from remote machine into local machine..thinking FTP adapter should help me to do this..
I dont need to poll the remote directory. rather I will pass the exact path and name of the file to be fetched during runtime as an input to the bpel process.
How to configure the FTP Adapter to receive the file path runtiime and gets it to local machine.
Is it doable using ftp adapter..?
Thanks
Saikrishna

Hello Anne,
Thank you for the help.
I am not able to call a adapter partner link using invoke activity..I am facing variable type conflicts.
modified the
OutboundFtpHeaderType wsdl to take file name and directory as:
<complexType>
<sequence>
<element name="*fileName*" type="string"/>
<element name="*directory*" type="string"/>
</sequence>
</complexType>
Using Adapters tab of Invoke activity created a variable:
<variable name="outputVariable"
messageType="client:FTPadapterResponseMessage"/>
<variable name="*filePath*" messageType="ns2:OutboundHeader_msg"/>
Using Assign Activity, assigned the input varibales to the ftp outboundHeader variable:
<assign name="Assign_1">
<copy>
<from variable="inputVariable" part="payload"
query="/client:FTPadapterProcessRequest/client:*directory*"/>
<to variable="*filePath*" part="outboundHeader"
query="/ns2:OutboundFTPHeaderType/ns2:directory"/>
</copy>
<copy>
<from variable="inputVariable" part="payload"
query="/client:FTPadapterProcessRequest/client:*filename*"/>
<to variable="*filePath*" part="outboundHeader"
query="/ns2:OutboundFTPHeaderType/ns2:fileName"/>
</copy>
</assign>
Used the created variable in the invoke activity as a input paramater to the partner link:
<invoke name="Invoke_1" partnerLink="ftpAdapterTest"
portType="ns1:SynchRead_ptt" operation="SynchRead"
inputVariable="*filePath*" bpelx:inputHeaderVariable="filePath"/>
<reply name="replyOutput" partnerLink="client" portType="client:FTPadapter"
operation="process" variable="outputVariable"/>
I am getting an error in invoke activity:
Variable type does not match the input type.
Thanks

Function module for logical file path and name

Hello all,
I am wondering is there any function module available to translate a logical file path to a physical file path and a logical file name to a physical file name? Thanks a lot!
Regards,
Anyi

Please check the FM FILE_NAME_GET.
      CALL FUNCTION <b>'FILE_GET_NAME'</b>
         EXPORTING
           logical_filename = 'ZDELCHKREP'
           parameter_1 = it_cntry-cntry
         IMPORTING
           file_name        = l_file
         EXCEPTIONS
           file_not_found   = 08.
    CALL FUNCTION <b>'FILE_GET_NAME_USING_PATH'</b>       EXPORTING
         logical_path = 'ZDELCHKREP'
         file_name = l_file
       IMPORTING
         file_name_with_path = l_file.

How to create result file path and name in teststand

Hi,
I would like to create specific path(folder) and file name to result files. For example ..\date\ArticleNr\DateTimeSerialNr.xml. Thank you very much in adance.
Kri.

Kri,
You can use Configure >> Report Options, and then select the Report File Pathname tab to configure where your reports will end up, and what the file name will be. If you want to have these be different for each sequence, then add the ReportOptions Callback to each sequence and then modify the settings in the Parameters.ReportOptions container to what you want.

How to auto save instrument output data to Excel with preset file path and names

Hi,
I'm having this auto saving problem. The type of my instrument output is ''1-D array of cluster of two elements''. I tried to use ''Report Generation Toolkit", but it seems the data type doesn't match. Anybody got ideas about the data type conversion? Other possible approaches are also welcome!
Thanks!!

What's in the cluster? Can you show us some code?

Sorting the view using the file path.

I would like to be able to sort my music library using the full file path (directory name) as this sorts it in the way I have setup my files.

Unfortunately you can only sort using columns that iTunes will display in the browser window; file path is not one of those.
If you have any programming experience you can use an external program to generate a playlist sorted by path, but you still won't be able to display the path in the iTunes window. That is, unless your external program also does something like put the path in the comment field. I guess if the program does that, you can display the comment field and sort using iTunes.
Here is the SDK for iTunes on Windows:

Regarding Application server file path

Hi All,
please explain the process how to create logical file path in FILE t-code.

Hi,
logical file path
The (platform-independent) logical file path is evaluated at runtime to get the (platform-dependent) physical path (see Assignment of Physical Paths to Logical Path).
Two examples of this are:
· Logical file path: BW_OLAP_CACHE
Name: BW OLAP Cache
· Logical file path: BW_OLAP_CACHE_SPAN
Name: BW OLAP cache cross-application server
Assignment of Physical Paths to Logical Path
At runtime, the physical path assigned for the corresponding operating system platform is generated from the logical file path.
Since the physical path is platform-dependent, the customer must set it her/himself. The closer the file is to the application server or, with the cross-application server cache mode, to the application server, the faster it can be found and read.
Log(ical) path: BW_OLAP_CACHE
Name: BW OLAP Cache
Syntax group: UNIX (all Unix platforms)
Phys(ical) path: /usr/ (Syntax group WINDOWS NT)
In a heterogeneous system landscape (such as UNIX and Windows NT servers) all system-specific syntax groups must be maintained. Ensure that the definitions for the various syntax groups point to the same directory.

Logical file path creation

Hi All,
In our project we have a requirement to fetch data in to .csv file on application from a report through an APD.
I have the complete step by step procedure to create logical file path and logical file name, but i have some doubts as follow
1. what is the adventage of using Logical file path and name, cant we use RSCRM BAPI file method?
2. What are the different types of Syntax group... and most of the time why we select UNIX as a syntax group while creating logical file path???
This will be a very helpful information for me..
Please help me..
Thank you,
Jaimin

RSCRM_BAPI - directly dumps a query as a .CSV in the app server - for an APD to work - you cannot specify the filename but then by specifyinf a logical file name - it can be run multiple times without any changes...

Set midnight commander as default file manager.

How can i set mc as a default file manager to open files from chrome downloads in it?
I've put a .desktop file inside /ust/share/applications/
midnight-commander.desktop

Type=Application
Terminal=true
Comment=A visual file manager
Exec=mc
TryExec=mc
