Hi Paul,

thank you! 

Actually, there already exists a possibility to copy the full file path
in Gnome Commander:

Press the "shift key" and click on the "copy file name" button in the
toolbar, left from the "cut" button. This button looks like two
asterisks (**). Now you copied the full path of the desired file.
(Unfortunately there doesn't exist a keyboard only shortcut yet.)

Regards,
Uwe
