I corrected your command (you left out the '.' before local and checked the webpost as well, which had the period. I ran: [Brian-OKeefes-Computer:~/.local/share] brianoke% mkdir -p ~/.local/share/Trash [Brian-OKeefes-Computer:~/.local/share] brianoke% ls Trash applications
so now there's trash but when I try to move an item to trash I still get the error 'can't create /sw/share/Trash'. How do I get the trash "action" to locate the directory @ '~/.local/share/Trash'?
