This is a matter of communicating current path from Vifm to system buffer via external command.
On *nix like operating systems using xclip
Commands to copy full paths to current directory and currently selected file could look like this:
" yank current directory path into the clipboard
nnoremap yd :!echo -n %d | xclip %i<cr>
" yank current file path into the clipboard
nnoremap yf :!echo -n %c:p | xclip %i<cr>
" yank current filename w\o path into the clipboard
nnoremap yn :!echo -n %c | xclip %i<cr>
On Windows using clip
Similar commands, but each has two versions for different types of slashes.
" yank current directory path to Windows clipboard with forward slashes nnoremap yp :!echo %"d:gs!\!/! %i | clip<cr> " yank current directory path to Windows clipboard with backward slashes nnoremap yP :!echo %"d %i | clip<cr> " yank path to current file to Windows clipboard with forward slashes nnoremap yf :!echo %"f:gs!\!/! %i | clip<cr> " yank path to current directory to Windows clipboard with backward slashes nnoremap yF :!echo %"f %i | clip<cr>
