Bin

Selecting the iconbar icon shows a Filer display into which files and directories can be moved. Each time the application is run the contents of this directory are wiped.

You can download the application from here.
  1. Make a new application (named “!Bin”)
    • Create a directory - named “Contents” - in the application's main directory
      maindir/gif

    • Edit the !Run file to include the command
      Set Bin$Path <Bin$Dir>.

  2. Add an Iconbar event handler
    • Amend the code to
      DEF PROCDealWith_Iconbar(event,object,component)
      CASE event OF
       WHEN Iconbar_Clicked : OSCLI("Filer_OpenDir Bin:Contents")
      ENDCASE
      ENDPROC

  3. Add an Initial event handler
    • Amend the code to
      DEF PROCDealWith_InitialEvent(event,object,component)
      PROCEmptyBin
      ENDPROC

      DEF PROCEmptyBin
      LOCAL ERROR
      ON ERROR LOCAL RESTORE ERROR : ENDPROC
      OSCLI("Wipe Bin:Contents.* FR~C~V")
      RESTORE ERROR
      ENDPROC
