This is a combination of two concepts that solved a lingering problem of mine. It treats the contents of of the clipboard as the name of a file, then looks for that file in the same directory as itself, and opens it. Simple enough, but it eliminates many, many headaches, especially in conjunction with other authoring programs.



I use this in Flash CD presentations to load external files on a Mac. There's a Windows equivalent of this, but it's kludgy and requires one copy of itself for every file that you want to load. I also find it more elegant than Flash's getURL() function, as this doesn't require a web browser to open documents.



Notes from those that found it useful are always appreciated.
