Konqueror delete unification

[Jos van den Oever]

Hello Koos,

Reading your post, I think your describing a killer app. A command-line trash 
tool would be very cool.

I've got a few remarks:
- use untrash for restoring files (restore is taken), using trash for trashing 
and restoring is confusing
- trash doesn't need to be interactive, only untrash needs to be
- put mktrash and trashfind in the daemon: the user nor root should need to 
run them

Actually the Trash Can project looks pretty well thought out. trash:// can 
probably build straight on top of it. Too bad it's not in Knoppix/Debian, 
otherwise I'd immediately apt-get it. I think I'll install it anyway.

I did find libtrash:

libtrash is a shared library which, when preloaded, will intercept
calls to a series of GNU libc functions and make sure that, if an
attempt to destroy certain files is made, these won't be permanently
destroyed but rather moved to a "trash can".

Cute idea, but too obfuscating for my taste.
