[Lubuntu-desktop] hajour

[Phill Whiteside]

Hi good people,

we always seek an understanding of what the ubuntu ethos is. We all have our
own way of putting it when trying to explain to others, but
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/hajour has summed it up in a short poem, which I'd
like to share with you all. As English is not her 1st language and a lot is
done via google translate it is not word perfect, but there is enough to
understand what hajour means. Hajour brings in a person who will help in
accessibility issues, in return I know we will have the patience and time to
help her.

I came in a community named Ubuntu.

Unsure if I was good enough to help with anything

Not really knowing where I ended up.

There came a blanket of warmth and cordiality to me.

caring,social and tolerancity.

I did not know what came over me

It was like i was coming home after a long journey

And warmly was received by family.

I personally, find that very touching as it is quite clearly from the heart.


Thank-you to all that have helped her to date and to all those who will do
so in the future,

Phill.

Re: [Lubuntu-desktop] trash can question

[Phill Whiteside]

And people say I can be straight to the point :P

I've no idea how big a job it would be for pcman, but there have been a
couple of times this has popped its head up. We have to accept that people
are coming over from Win / Mac environments, and easing the transition is
some thing we need to be aware of. If it could be added to the "wish-list"
at least we can let people know that they are not being ignored and when
time allows it will be looked into. I appreciate that there are far more
important tasks that need to be carried out before we get to the
"wish-list".

Regards,
Phill.

Thanks. Basically what you guys suggested is to create a shortcut to pcmanfm
trash. This works. Basically the link looks like it's a real trash, but it
doesn't behave like one. So there is no way to create a real trash can
outside the file manager?

Thanks
Zoltan

Re: [Lubuntu-desktop] trash can question

[PCMan]

This one works, too.

[Desktop Entry]
Type=Link
Name=Trash
URL=trash:///
Icon=user-trash

PCManFM supports Type=Link

Just open up leafpad and put the following in:

[Desktop Entry]
Type=Application
Version=1.0
Name=Trash
Exec=pcmanfm trash:///
Icon=emptytrash
Terminal=false

Save it as trash.desktop on the Desktop. The Desktop should then show a
Trash icon, which will open pcmanfm.  Right clicking won’t work though.

Just create a new txt file called trash.desktop in the Desktop folder and paste 
in the following:

Type=Application
Icon=emptytrash
Name=Trash
Name[de]=Persönliches Verzeichnis
Categories=FileManager;Utility;Core;GTK;
Exec=pcmanfm trash:///
StartupNotify=true
Terminal=false

This will give you a trash icon on the desktop. But unfortunately the icon is 
fixed and won't change if there is something in the trash.
