I accidentally discovered a wonderful thing. When you get a error dialog in Windows, you can copy a text-only version of the dialog by pressing the usual "copy" keyboard shortcut. You get something like this:
---------------------------
EditPlus 3
---------------------------
File operation failed.

C:\very\long\path\elided.txt

The system cannot find the path specified.
---------------------------
OK
---------------------------
It doesn't work for all dialogs, but when it does it's lovely.
