Redundancy and KS for Recycle Bin

It seems I have found a button that's completely redundant within a XY window. Here's a screen:
Under which circumstance(s) that button isn't greyed out?
Also, I want to assign a KS to prompt for emptying of Recycle Bin. How can I do that? Thank you

assign ks to this script:
Code: Select all
msg "Empty recycle bin?", 1;
//ID for empty recycle bin
#642;
//Status message
status Recycle bin is now empty!, ready;

Thanks serendepity. A little hiccup: using your script and assigning it to KS adds an extra step of asking to empty the Recycle Bin. How can we shorten it so it goes straight for #642?

Never. Yep, might be an idea to remove it.

Use CKS. Where's the problem?

you should be able to just use:
//ID for empty recycle bin
#642;
for the shortcut.
or this if you still want the status message:
//ID for empty recycle bin
#642;
//Status message
status Recycle bin is now empty!, ready;

Yep, like eurytos said a simple #642 would do. But I thought you needed a "prompt" before the delete which is why I included the first line.

I don't get why you use scripting for this.
Why not simply use CKS?

Actually this is what confused me at first, I thought Ivan needed something different from the CKS.
@Ivan:
You can achieve the same by going to Tools> Custom Keyboard Shortcuts and assign shortcut to Empty recycle bin which is under tools category.

Thank you everyone. I was able to set up a CKS and now all is fine. Let's just hope that Recycle Bin will be integrated into XY soon...
