Some ideas of improving the CLRDISK:

1) Implement the "trash definition", such as ... trash1 should be zero
length files ... trash2=.tmp, .temp, trash3=.bak, .log, thumbs.db ...
trash4=.dos, .$$$ (a bit danger)

2) Ask user to double confirm the trash level and reply "YES" to start
(idea from Eric Auer's FORMAT)

3) provide a switch to LOG all the files (with full path) deleted

4) Print deleted files (current version have nothing on screen, don't
know what files was removed)

5) A switch for each file delete confirmation (press Y or N to
continue)

6) A switch to dump 30 (or more) bytes of the "to be deleted" file on
screen, to make sure it's the "right" file to delete.

Sorry for the bunch of suggestions, but I think everyone will love
this.


Rgds,
Johnson.
