Copy directory listing to clipboard or file

[driekske]

as seen in WS_FTP:

...
The DirInfo button opens a window that displays the
files and folders in the current folder, as well as the
file sizes, and dates and times last edited.
...
as in ls -la

What should this be good for? FileZilla already lists all files and folders in a given folder, with file sizes, as well as time and date of last modification or creation, depending on what the FTP server sends.

The DirInfo-button pushes text to standard out, opens a copy-paste-able text-window.
As with Filezilla, is gives you its cache in text.

Comes in very handy when you want to (hyper-)link to a lot of individual files, you just uploaded to your web server. You don't have to re-type all the filenames in your CMS, you can copy-paste them.

As a workaround, you can enable "raw directory listing" in the debug settings and then copy'n'paste the output from message log.

The directory listing should easily be copy-able to the clipboard or save-able as a file:
