Short: Global-Trashcan with GUI,undelete and more Author: olli@rbg.informatik.tu-darmstadt.de (Oliver Blumert) Uploader: olli@rbg.informatik.tu-darmstadt.de (Oliver Blumert) Version: 1.0 Type: util/wb Kurz: Globaler Mülleimer mit GUI, Undelete uvm. Replaces: util/wb/GlobalTrash.lha Requires: AmigaOS 3.0 ___________________________________________________________________________ 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.
