Adds a Copy Path menu item to Xed editor’s context menu, allowing users to copy the full path of the current document to the clipboard.
- Context menu: Right-click anywhere in the document → Copy Path
- (Future) Keyboard shortcut and notification support may be added in upcoming releases
- Create a copy-path folder anywhere you want:
mkdir -p ~/copy-path- copy the files .plugin and .py there
- Copy the folder copy-path to Xed's system-wide plugins directory:
sudo cp -r copy-path /usr/lib64/xed/plugins/- Restart Xed.
- Enable the plugin in Edit → Preferences → Plugins → Copy Path.
Notes
- This requires root privileges because the plugin is installed system-wide.
- The plugin is written in Python 3 and uses GTK 3 / libpeas.
