Short: Deletes files via requester
Author: paull@thenet.co.uk
Uploader: paull@thenet.co.uk (Paul Lathwell)
Type: util/misc
OVERVIEW
Just a simple program to open a requester for deleting files,
rather than having to resort to a directory utility, cli or
using the Workbench delete menus. I really wrote this program
for two reasons...
1. So my brother could delete files he had created in Wordworth
without having to resort to learning the use of Directory Opus
etc. which also means he is unlikely to delete any of my files!
2. As a little project in how to use requesters in Blitz Basic
USAGE
Erase is best used by adding it to your Workbench menus using a program
such as Toolsdaemon. There are two tooltype that may be set...
PATH - This sets the default directory the file requester opens when
Erase is run. Intially set to - Sys:
PATTERN - The pattern used by the requester. Initally set to - #?
Just run Erase and select the files you want to delete. Hold down the
shift key to select multiple files. Just click on 'Okay' when you've
selected the required files - job done. :-)
This program may be freely distrubuted. Provided 'as is' and without warranty,
you use this program entirely at your own risk!
The source code for Blitz is available to programmers in the dev/misc path. ;-)
