Summary: Another finder feature...


Hi,

I'm new to the net, but not the Mac.  One thing that has always irked me
about the Finder on a hard disk system is the insistence on emptying the
trash at every application launch.  I had hoped that HFS would fix this,
but no, everytime you change to another application, there goes your trash.

What I propose is another flag in the LAYO resource that controls wheter
the trash auto-dumps.  Floppies SHOULD dump, but it is not always necessary
on a 20M hard disk.
