QuickPath tool to quickly add open folder paths to file dialogs.

I'm back to using XYplorer after being gone for a while.
I have this tool, QuickPath.

This is really a copy of QuickSwitch. I wanted a version of QS that was written in v2 of AHK rather than v1. I ended up basically recreating it (with much help from Claude and several humans). It has a subset of the features in QS. Anyway... I recently added support for XYplorer. Checkout the Github repo or AHK forum thread, if interested.

I don't see a benefit of just having Quick Switch in AHK V2
if only the same functions or even less are provided.
Look at the actual best version of Quick Switch which supports
File Explorer, Directory Opus, Total Commander, XYPlorer
https://github.com/JoyHak/QuickSwitch
I use it in combination with Total Commander and XYplorer.

XiaoYao_QuickJump is now even more powerful — version 4.5.2 has integrated Everything.
The interface is in Chinese, but I think that shouldn't affect basic navigation/jumping.
As for settings, you can use OCR recognition or ask an AI for assistance.

For Everything in Open/Save dialogs or changing the path in File managers
there is JumpToFolder from the author of the Original Quick Switch.
It allows jumping to any folder or file using a search result.

As far as I know, there aren't any AHK v2 versions of QuickSwitch. The JoyHak code appears to be AHK v1(?) That said, I agree that there is no really benefit of using an AHK v2 script instead of a v1 one. Also, I believe it is totally fine to have a bunch of v2 scripts running, and v1 scripts running concurrently. I just thought it would be fun to have a v2 version of it. I've added only the features that I actually use--which is why QP only has a subset of the QS features. One feature that is present in QP which (as I recall) is not present in QS, is that the currently-focused tab in XYplorer or DOpus has a little icon marking it.
