- Description:
-
- TrashCan provides a waste bin/trash can/dustbin facility where by the user can
- delete files safely with the knowledge that if they deleted the wrong thing
- the file can be restored by extracting it from the trash can. The facility
- offered by this application is not limited to files. Directories and filing
- system images may also be deleted. Different Filer options such as Confirm
- and Verbose can also be set for the TrashCan, compared to those used by other
- filer operations. All operations use RISC OS 3 facilities to take place in
- the background.
