Hi everyone,

Only recently did I recall a post I once did to this mailing list about 
basing KDE's trash can on libtrash 
(http://www.m-arriaga.net/software/libtrash). Back then, Carsten  thought it 
might be a good idea to include it with KDE 3, but I fear that it might be a 
bit late for that now. 
(http://lists.kde.org/?l=kfm-devel&m=99749555022692&w=2).

Some possible advantages over the current (2.2) trash can:

- supports the archival of multiple "deleted" files with the same name;
- works with konsole (i.e., 'rm'ing files in konsole doesn't cause their 
permanent loss);
- works with all non-KDE apps (both console and GUI-based);
- it can be extensively configured.


Let me know what you think.

Best regards,

Manuel Arriaga
