Describe the feature

Hi! This plugin has become an essential tool for me to browse file directories. However, in some cases, using the system’s graphical file explorer (and any other tools) is more convenient. I’d like the ability to copy files from Neovim and paste them into the system clipboard (and vice versa), just like copying and pasting files in a graphical file explorer.

Provide background

When I connect a removable device, the path is often difficult to input manually. Similarly, when I want to send files to other applications (like a browser or chat software), I have to manually open the file explorer, copy the file, and then paste it into the application.

What is the significance of this feature?

strongly desired

Additional details

I’m not sure if this is feasible on all systems, but on macOS, it can be achieved using osascript.
