outstanding response Philb66!!

glad to see we finally (!!) got a result (no thanks to me...)

If you're not whale heeled we can play for lower steaks, those for tuna lately won't cost as much.

I'm amaized that you could write this after PhilB66 saved your bacon!

The script's complete,
Your masterpiece now done.
A striking feat
To dodge a ghastly pun!

@Target

Are you going to add "duplicate to" functionality? Would like that very much.

how would that be implemented - alternative hotkeys? (I asked this elsewhere in the thread)

A different hotkey combination to access this functionality would do.

This is a neat tool but I've noticed that when copying a folder, it becomes just a file.

that was the original request (it was never intended to duplicate folders)
