Hi Alex,
Just toi clat=rify, this was two double quotes with a comma right before

Hi David,
There is nothing special that you need to make QT work, except for QT itself
(which you re-installed). For now, I bet it is the file path. Mac file paths
are different from Windows file paths. For example:

Works for relative pathing too. For example if the defaultfolder is still

of the other folders from the current default location) and it works fine

Actually, I was not aware you could disable system menu items. It may be that
LC is greying out the items, but still handling the hot keys. I suppose there
ought to be a way to prevent copying content in LC as a security precaution,
say for copyrighted material as an example.
