- AppTrash is a replacement for the old Trashcan. You might wonder why you
- should use AppTrash instead of the old Trashcan.
-
- I'll give you some reasons:
-
- - AppTrash can delete files immediately (instead of storing them in the
- Trashcan where they take up precious space).
-
- - AppTrash does a true "move", when safe-deleting from one volume to
- another. Trashcan copied the file(s) if they where on different
- volumes than the Trashcan-drawer.
-
- - AppTrash can format disks. Choose your own favorite diskformatter, as
- long as it's possible to control it from CLI.
-
- - AppTrash recognises Trashcan-icons. It's then up to you to decide
- whether you want to remove the trashcan-drawer, or just empty it.
-
- - AppTrash can also warn you before doing anything. This will prevent
- you from deleting the wrong files. Just cancel the operation
- when the requester pops up.
-
- - AppTrash can remove protected files.
-
- - All settings can easily be changed from a window.
