- Also, you may wish to change the name of the trash can (which I
- think is STR# 11750 in the Finder) and the "Empty Trash..."
- item in the Special menu (same location).
-
- Of course, be sure you work on a copy of the Finder and /or System,
- stored in separate folders (to avoid them becoming "blessed"),
- and then move the working Finder/System into speparate folders
- and replace with the modified ones.
