The freedesktop standards and the virtual file system approach provide some advantages, unfortunately developers of the bigger desktop environments are ignorant to some serious issues, but this is off-topic for this thread. The location of trash IMO isn't a problem. The averaged desktop environment user would get access by the mechanism the desktop environment provides. The only learning curve is to get the knowledge, how the desktop environment's file manager behaves. This behaviour sometimes might not fit to the individual needs, since it's usually representing the lowest common denominator. Users of light weight window managers and command line usually don't use trash at all, at best they are using special trash tools. ___________________________________________________ This message is from the kde-linux mailing list.
