Send a song to a playlist in a single operation

Hi there,

Is there a way to send the selected song to a specific playlist, in only ONE operation ?

I know the [context menu > Utilities > Send to playlist...] command, but then there is a mandatory dialog where I have to manually select the wanted playlist (and I have hundreds of them).

More importantly, the dialog doesn't seem to remember any "default" playlist, nor even the last playlist I sent a song to. So if I want to send 10 specific songs to the SAME playlist (one song at a time), I still have to manually find the playlist 10 times in the dialog's drop-down list.

I would ideally like to assign a keyboard shortcut to the command "send the selected song to the playlist XXX", so I can achieve that with a single keystroke.

Is there a way to achieve that with foobar or with a specific component ? Thanks. :)

PS : before some smart guy says it : drag & dropping to the XXX playlist is not convenient for me either (remember I have hundreds of playlists, so I would have to scroll, find it, etc.).

I believe it's foo_utils that enables such an item, and makes it available via the Keyboard Shortcuts menu. Filter the available commands with 'playlist add'. The exact playlist is able to be selected. Just tested it.

Edit: and important to note it's not the 'Send to playlist' alternative command that it also provides, that replaces the playlist contents with the selection. It's 'Add' you want.
