Short: Replaces the trashcan with an AppIcon
Author: kdsheedy@dcomp.demon.co.uk (Kevin Sheedy)
Uploader: kdsheedy@dcomp.demon.co.uk (Kevin Sheedy)
Type: util/wb
The trashcan has a number of faults :
* A trashcan is needed on every volume (Floppy disks, Hard disks e.t.c)
* The trashcan does not delete files directly, they are stored in a special
directory until the user selects "Empty Trash"
* The trashcan is located in the window of the root directory of a drive.
It is not always easy to get to in a crowded workbench screen.
"The Bin" solves these problems by :
* Placing one icon in the actual workbench window.
* Files are deleted straight away (the user is asked to confirm)
* Using the commodity system. A Hotkey will bring up the control window.
"The Bin" is written by Kevin Sheedy and requires Workbench 2.0 or above.
