Actually, this would be pretty cool! But maybe you don't realize that we can already kinda do it. I was trying to do delete all the files in my temp folder but didn't want to send them to the bin: just hold shift after XY's msgbox (but if no items are locked, then you have to hold it in the end when XY calls the API, oh well you got the idea...).admin wrote:(1) SHIFT + delete (skip locked): -> no recycle bin
It's kinda weird, cause you have to do it twice if you have empty folders to remove too, and it's kinda unnatural to hold shift after an msgbox instead of when starting the action, so I'll wait for the Ctrl+Shift+Del
I'd vote for it!admin wrote:BTW: I wonder whether I should generally do CTRL+DEL -> skip locked. But this needs careful consideration... later.
And also, you forgot to turn the mousepointer to an hourglass when you do your step1, so one could wonder "whats going on? is there anything going on??"
That, plus something on the statusbar (3rd panel) mentionning what's hapenning (like "Looking for locked items...") would be nice I think ; and make ESC cancel the whole thing.
