Text 2 Folders

The CTRL+N "new folder" shortcut is very useful but would someone be able to expand its functionality by implementing the ability to create directories based on item names, similar to the functionality of Text 2 Folders?

I'm unsure what the best implementation method would be but having this ability within XYplorer itself would be great and hopefully this script request will also help others.

Thank you in advance.

Not sure if this is what you're looking for, but there's a script to create nested items: viewtopic.php?f=7&t=13298

There's also the new items menu built into XY. You create template items/structures and can then make copies of those items into the current directory.

Perfect, this was exactly what I was looking for. Thank you very much.

Would it be possible to add a context menu entry under "New Folder" as "New Folders" that launches the .xys?

No user defined menu entries in XYplorers context menu... Apart if know how to script and write one yourself for a custom event action...
