Make it possible to copy and paste from system clipboard

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. I enjoy incorporating SPF into my workflow, though there's one feature I currently miss. The ability to copy and paste files and directories directly to and from my system clipboard. This functionality would be particularly useful when transferring or reusing data between different computers or applications.

Describe the solution you'd like An extra shortcut to be added (or option to) to copy and paste from the system clipboard.

If it's just text, OSC52 control sequences would do, at least on modern terminal emulators.

@pataquets No. OP is talking about copying and pasting files and directories, not the text.

I think it's a really valuable feature that it can interact with the system clipboard to copy and paste directories and files into another application.

I agree. I would like to have some ideas on how can we implement, what external library to use, etc.

Then we can come up with how complex is it to implement it, and do it.
