I use MediaMonkey and have the following F9 menu in Ztree:

REM #ZTTag d:\temp\mediamonkey.m3u -uq -CA
start D:\Programme\MediaMonkey\MediaMonkey.exe d:\temp\mediamonkey.m3u

The first line copies all tagged files into the file "d:\temp\mediamonkey.m3u" and the second line starts MediaMonkey and tells it to load this file. That much easier to handle. If I want to hear multiple selections of tagged files I just tag them, then F9/Enter (if the entry is still selected) and MediaMonkey starts and plays the files.

I find this whole concept a bit useless and would prefer that all programmers implement a text file based load/import/paste function first. It's much easier to programm and to understand and much easier to maintain. You can hold multiple copies of such files, edit them with an editor and don't need to grapple with the clipboard at all.
