It actually works best, IMO, with %f and only checking the "Directories"
check box in the "Appearance Conditions" tab.

Then you can right click on a subdirectory and run the action, and the
file will be copied to that subdirectory. Or you can right click on an
empty space in the view and run the command from there, to copy the file
to the current directory.
