Scripting would help...
Code: Select all
$template = popupmenu(replace(listfolder("<xydata>\FindTemplates", "*.ini", 4), ".ini"));
loadsearch $template, "x";
#260;
Depending on what you need, you eventually have to edit the "x" (see help file for loadsearch()).

For the location field?
%programfiles% works fine for me...

You should be able to exclude it when you store it with the template and use the "e" option for loadsearch()

Extend the script by making a temp version of the template and insert what's currently in the clipboard into it and load that one instead.

No... Templates don't support variables that you can only get by scripting.
Code: Select all
$template = "<xydata>\FindTemplates\pc.ini";
$content = regexreplace(readfile($template), "^(Named="")([^""]+)", "$1<clipboard>");
writefile($template, $content);
loadsearch getpathcomponent($template, "base"), "l";
