___________________________________________________________________________
GlobalTrash is a trashcan-system that offers a global trashcan, undelete-
ability (remembers the origin), GUI and device-specific commands (e.g.
eject-support) via external AmigaDOS commands.
It comes with a german and english version (via locale), guides,
installer-script and it's free (but a registration is required).
As the version-number shows this is a kind of prerelease wich offers all
for release 1 planned features but may still contain any (unknown) errors.
And here are the highlights:
- One appicon for all volumes on the workbench.
- Fontsensitive and appealing GUI.
- Access to a global trashcan with the contents of all trashcan-
directories on all volumes.
- Ability to access a single trashcan-directory on a volume.
- Automatically delete files older than a specific amount of days.
- You can use the trashcan for the backups of your programms (like
GoldED, PageStream,...). You will always have access to your older
documents and you can be sure that they will be deleted if they are
too old.
- Ability to start an AmigaDOS-Command for every volume (to eject your
ZIP-Disks for example).
- Different requesters with various options for interaction.
- Usage in combination with DirectoryOpus (uses GlobalTrash for the
delete-operation) is possible (note: the needed program is in an early
alpha-state and not included in this version - comes with V 1.0).
- Progress-bar.
- Correct processing of the same filenames in the same trashcan-
directory (no overwriting of existent files in a trashcan directory).
- Ability to restore a file in his original path with his original
filename.
- GUI shows a file-tree for directories. Ability to browse within this
tree and to process (restore, delete) files from within.
- Recognition of files which are not moved by GlobalTrash into the
trashcan directory (without the origin); for example a backup-file from
GoldED.
- Ability to restore files over multiple volumes.
- Correct processing of the iconfiles (#?.info).
- and many many more.
