- Jan,
-
- I suspect this isn't a bug, but just has to do with how icons are
- implemented. Every file that has an icon for Workbench to display
- has a corresponding "<filename>.info" file. When you execute
- a delete command from "execute command" or from the shell, this
- file will not automatically be deleted. Were you to delete them
- by the workbench menus, however, the .info files would be destroyed.
-
- In any case, if the .info file still exists, Workbench will (correctly)
- continue to display it, even if the file itself no longer exists.
