Trash Man

TrashMan 4.0.5, written in 1993 by Dan Walkowski (who was at Apple at the time) still works fine under OS 8.6. It's a background app and a control panel and an application, so I expect it'll work forever--Macs are like that. :-) (This is not the same item as the other TrashMan in the archive, BTW.) The readme says "Place the 'TrashMan Emptier' on your desktop near your hard disk icons. Drop the 'TrashMan Controls' and 'TrashMan Engine' into your System Folder. Open the 'TrashMan Controls' control panel, and choose your settings. Restart your machine. Files will now be deleted from your trash after they are older than the specified time limit. To empty all the trash on a particular disk, drop the disk icon on the Emptier on your desktop." It's shareware, $10, but I have no idea how to contact Dan. Kiran
