Hello, I wouldn't mind doing it as an installable package (If that is even possible), or forking and changing the source code directly. This is mostly for educational purposes and getting to know some production C++. |

Sorry for the confusion in my orignal question. When you select an file in the fileexplorer dialog. The file explorer window will close and the absolute path of the selected file will be copied into the terminal at your current cursor position. I hope this makes it more clear what the general idea is. This was also the reason why i think the normal command system is not enough to create this. Since the command line has to copy the path of the selected file to the current cursor position. |

Also i just looked at the referenced issue and it looks be to be doing, what i thought i needed to do too. I have been ofcourse looking through the code. But i was a bit overwhelmed with the amount of places i have to specify the shortcut i want to add to make it show up and have a starting point for my code (Could not find documentation on this, could definitly be because of me). I have read this Comment in issue which states there are some macros for adding an command but those are outdated. This is however an comment from 2022. Are there any new macros added. Or has the documentation stated in this issue as slightly outdated been updated? |

I have now also added an check if quotes are necessary or not. And code for WSL support. Is not working though since i can't find an accessibel function to check if it is wsl. There is one private _interactivity which i could use but i don't know the best practices around changing that to public. |

But also, if I can try to dig in to what you're trying to accomplish here - You want to select some text, then try to open that selected text in file explorer? In case you didn't know, the
startcommand in a shell will open the path provided in file explorer. Sostart c:\users\foo\downloadsopensc:\users\foo\downloadsin File Explorer. It might be easier to just select the text, ctrl+c to copy, then home and typestartYou might even be able to whip up a
multipleActionscommand that does thecopy, thensendInputthe sequence"\u001b[Hstart "(which is the enoding for the home key).
