Coding Snack: Create folder structure or path

blog clipart
I would like to be able to create a 'copy' of a path. 

For example, let's say I have a file in this folder:
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Documents\My Pictures\

I would like to copy this file to D:\temp so that the path becomes like this:
D:\temp\Documents and Settings\All Users\Documents\My Pictures\

Now, I would have to go to D:\temp, create the first folder Documents and Settings, then enter that folder to create the next All Users folder, and so on, before I can copy my file to that location.

If possible, I'd like a right click option in Windows Explorer to select 'Copy with path' and then 'Paste and create path'.

Coding Snack: Make your monitor corners look round?

Maybe kind of useless, but I really wonder what my pc looks like when the corners are overlay with a black image of an outer corner.

Coding Snack: Sort images into folders based on resolution?

blog clipart
Not sure if something like this exists, but was wondering if someone knew about a tool/could whip something up that was able to scan & sort images based on their resolutions (would have to support non-standard sizes as well, like 1794x1250). It wouldn't have to be anything massive (or even have a GUI or options or anything), just something that would go through and make folders for each size, then move the images in. Anyone?

ActiveHotkeys (freeware)

On several occasions there have been requests for a program that displays what global keyboard shortcuts are registered by various applications. ActiveHotkeys does just that: it will show a list of all acgtive (registered) or inactive (available) global hotkeys. Remember that Windows does not allow for detecting which application has registered a particular shortcut, so that feaure is not included.

eStopWatch (freeware)

So here's another one... a simple stopwatch/timer with a few handy features. Yes, there are plenty available, and no, I didn't quite like any of them, so I wrote my own :)

Please note: Windows 2000, XP and up only. Will not work on Windows 95, 98 or ME (won't even open).

At the moment, it only counts up. I didn't add the ability to count down to zero, since I didn't need it at the time, but please post if it would make your day.

Does anyone know a command (or a workaround) to duplicate a file in the same folder, adding the date or a numerical index that auto increments?
