Idea: "MakeNewFolder" clone for Windows 7

<< < (2/2)

Brian De Braganza:
@MilesAhead - I quite understand, although it wouldn't need to be a GUI copy. I wonder if something could be thrown together with AutoHotKey? Maybe I'll experiment myself.

I'll give a hint. On Vista and Windows7 I do GetWindowText (or in AHK it would be WinGetText) on the active window(assumed to be an Explorer folder)and the string with the current folder is between "Address: " and a line feed or end of line.  In AHK you might be able to dig it out with a regex. In AutoIt3 I use _StringBetween().  Once you have the current folder then you can manipulate things pretty easily.
