Many moons ago, unless my mind is playing tricks on me, I'm pretty sure I dragged a file into a console for the console to get its filename. Does anyone know the command to do that?

One of these days I'll the the guy with the answers and not the one with the questions. Please bare with me until then.
The what kind of command to do what? Shell command? C command? Command to drop a file somewhere? Command to get a filename?
There is no command. Just do it. Drag from explorer into a cmd.exe Window, and it pastes the path.Originally Posted by koxson

What do you mean by getting the file's name?
EDIT: Too slow.. -.- @brewbuck: I didn't know that, thanks.

Vanity of vanities, saith the Preacher, vanity of vanities; all is vanity.
What profit hath a man of all his labour which he taketh under the sun?
All the rivers run into the sea; yet the sea is not full; unto the place from whence the rivers come, thither they return again.
For in much wisdom is much grief: and he that increaseth knowledge increaseth sorrow.
Didn't work for me.
On Vista and above the destination process must be running at the same or lower integrity level than the source. Eg, if the console is running elevated and the explorer isn't, it won't work. Welcome to the wonderfully teary world of UIPI.

I mean for the filename to be displayed and accepted by the program as if I had used cin to put it there but instead by using draging the file into the console.What do you mean by getting the file's name?
