I'd have to third the wish-list on this one. I know the reason you don't
have a trashcan is because of Apple's shakey trigger finger on look-and-feel
lawsuits... But it is difficult to convince a mac user that executor is
easy with the current file deletion methods. I would opt for the ability
to just hit "delete" and have the selected file get trashed. (of course
with a dialog box that says, "are you sure"-- and multi-select would also
help out)
---Also on a side note:
Would it be possible to have a Macintosh partition? Can any of ardi's
disk formating routines be able to create a partition? The reason I ask
is because ideally I'd like to have a mac partition that could be shared
by OS/2 and Linux, then executor could work the same (i.e. same
filesystem) in both systems... I know I could just use an .hfv file on
the dos partition, but this just seems kind of clunky. (of is it just my
warped perception? Should I not be concerned that its an emulated
filesystem?)
