How to easily copy a file to which a shortcut points?

Hello -

I was wondering if anybody knows tool that can be used via the right-
click context menu to copy the actual file to which a shortcut points.

Right now I have to right-click on a shortcut and select Properties.
Then copy/paste the path of the Target: and paste it into an explorer
window to get to the original file.

Is there any easy way to add something that does that to the right-
click context menu? Maybe an entry like "Copy Target"?

Even just a "Open Containing Folder" that shows up in the right-click
context menu (just like for files that were found in a search) would
be helpful.

Thanks!
Joe

I also cannot see a "Find Target" in the right-click > Properties
dialog.

Thanks,
Joe
