Fetch Help > Commands > Copy / Copy With Fetch Address

The Copy command lets you copy text window contents, or copy and then paste shortcuts in shortcut list windows.

This command is available as:

- The Copy command in the Edit menu
- The Copy command in the shortcuts list window contextual menu

You can use the Copy command to copy text from any place you can select text.

In shortcut list windows, you can select shortcuts and copy them to be pasted in other shortcut list windows.

If you copy a shortcut and paste into a window that accepts text, either a web address or a Fetch address (URL) equivalent to that shortcut will be pasted, depending on whether you have configured WebView for the server referred to by the shortcut. To copy a Fetch address when WebView is configured for the shortcut, hold down the Option key when choosing Copy, and the command will become Copy With Fetch Address.

If you select an item in a file list, the Copy command becomes the Copy Fetch Address or Copy Web Address command and copies a Uniform Resource Locator (URL) to that item on the clipboard. See those commands' help topics for more information.

To copy a remote file or folder from one server to another, drag the remote file or folder from one transfer window to another.

You can use the Copy and Paste commands to upload files and folders in Fetch, or to copy files and folders from one folder to another on the same server, or from one server to another. See the uploading using copy and paste or copying files using copy and paste help topics for more information.

You can also use the Duplicate command to make another copy of a remote file on a server.
