Thank you very much, Paul! This is the best thing a stranger has given me in a long time!
To summarize:
How to add a copy full file name & path right-click context menu option to Bridge:
Launch either:
* ExtendScript Toolkit CS5
* your favorite text editorCopy this into it (excluding the equals sign seperators)
=====================================================#target bridge
if( BridgeTalk.appName == "bridge" ) {
bridgePath = new MenuElement("command", "Path to Clipboard", "at the end of Thumbnail");
}
bridgePath.onSelect = function () {
pathToClipboard();
}
function pathToClipboard(){
var sels = app.document.selections;
app.system("echo "+decodeURI(sels[0].spec.fsName) +"|clip");
}
=====================================================Save as:
C:\Users\{your user name}\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Bridge CS5\Startup Scripts\Bridge Copy Path.jsxLaunch Bridge
Allow the new scriptThanks,

Copy Path has stopped working.
I double checked that the .jsx file is intact. It is.
I recopied the body of the script from above into the .jsx file. No difference.
I've Disabled and re-enabled the "Bridge Copy Path Script."
I've re-started Bridge.
I've re-booted my computer.
All of these in various sequences.
Selecting "Path to Clipboard" from the right-click context menu causes what looks like a DOS window to popup and close right away. This is normal behavior. But, the result is that the copy buffer is un-changed. It retains whatever was in it before the execution of the script.
The script had been working fine for a long time. I dont' have any idea what would have changed it or how to fix it.
To answer some basic questions that are sure to pop up.
What is in the file
