Trashcan manager for Amiga OS

The best trashcan manager

AmigaOS has a very good feature - Trashcan. But it is not convenient if you use multiple partitions. Also you must use Workbench to manage files. I was looking for better programs. I found a few, but they were very simple and only made AppIcon on Workbench and nothing more. Have you seen Trash on Mac? Or even trashcan in Windows 95? I missed them so I wrote my own trashcan replacement.

It has following features:

  • Deleted and replaced files are moved to trashcan (works with all programs, performing delete operations on files).
  • Remembers original location of deleted files.
  • Patches Dos DeleteFile() function for increased functionality (now it can delete non empty directory).
  • You can use enhanced trashcan only on selected devices (eg. you can perform operations in old way with, for instance, floppy disks).
  • Automatic trashcan emptying if there is no free space on the device.
  • MultiUser support (similiar to WindowsNT).
  • And many more...

Changes:

97.03.31 - v1.3

  • New catalogs added (Czech, Deutsch, French).
  • Some bugs removed.
  • Speeded up scrolling window contents (now uses blitter for it).
  • Removed major bug: writing file on directory was causing to move that directory to trashcan, instead of displaying that the file already exists.
  • polski.catalog: removed string bug.
  • Fixed bug when choosing 'Remove Selected' menu item, when there wasn't selected files - caused 'Divide by Zero' guru.
  • Fixed bug when deleting files on non trashman partitions.
