-
- GlobalTrash is a trashcan-system that offers a global trashcan, undelete-
- ability (remembers the origin), GUI and device-specific commands (e.g.
- eject-support) via external AmigaDOS commands.
- It comes with catalogs, guides and installer-scripts in different
- languages and it's FREE (but a registration after 30 days is required).
-
- This is the first stable version, fixes all known bugs of the prerelease
- and adds a few new options (in the preferences) and some improved new
- features (see history below).
-
-
- And here are the highlights:
- ============================
-
- - One appicon for all volumes on the workbench.
- - Fontsensitive and appealing GUI.
- - Access to a global trashcan with the contents of all trashcan-
- directories on all volumes.
- - Ability to access a single trashcan-directory on a volume.
- - Automatically delete files older than a specific amount of days.
- - You can use the trashcan for the backups of your programms (like
- GoldED, PageStream,...). You will always have access to your older
- documents and you can be sure that they will be deleted if they are
- too old.
- - Ability to start an AmigaDOS-Command for every volume (to eject your
- ZIP-Disks for example).
- - Different requesters with various options for interaction.
- - Usage in combination with DirectoryOpus (or other programms) possible.
- The nedded external programm 'GlobalTrashClient is now included.
- - Progress-bar.
-
- - Correct processing of the same filenames in the same trashcan-
- directory (no overwriting of existent files in a trashcan directory).
- - Ability to restore a file in his original path with his original
- filename.
- - GUI shows a file-tree for directories. Ability to browse within this
- tree and to process (restore, delete) files from within.
- - Recognition of files which are not moved by GlobalTrash into the
- trashcan directory (without the origin); for example a backup-file
- from GoldED.
- - Ability to restore files over multiple volumes.
- - Correct processing of the iconfiles (#?.info).
- - and many many more.
