Anybody know the exact path/folder name for the Trash on PCs?

2001-01-22 Thread Steve Maser

Hi all,

I'd like to modify my backup scripts so that things in the 
"recycle bin" on PCs aren't backed up using Retro 4.3 on the Mac.

Anybody have a handy reference for what that directory is called 
on all the variants of Windows (95, 98, ME, NT and 2000) -- and over 
multiple partitions?

Thanks!  (I'm sure I could figure this out, but if somebody 
already did this, I'd be happy to take that info.)

- Steve

I test for enclosing folder name exactly matches "RECYCLED" or 
"RECYCLER", but I set it up a long time ago so don't remember which 
variants I checked.
