I was wondering if anybody knows of a script that will copy the pathway to the clipboard via the contextual menu when you right click on a file, folder or the desktop?

This happens automatically whenever you copy files (via the context menu or Ctrl-c).

But instead of pasting the actual object to a desired location, I'd like to paste just the text of the path instead.
