;;; trashcan.el --- A recoverable file deletion system

;; Copyright (C) 2006-2016 Davin Pearson

;; Author/Maintainer: Davin Max Pearson <http://davin.50webs.com>
;; Version: 1.17
;; Package-Requires: ()
;; Keywords: Amiga MacOS Trash Can Windows Recycle Bin

;;; Commentary:

;; This file is not part of GNU Emacs.

;; The file trashcan.el contains a recoverable file deletion system
;; that behaves like the trash can or recycle bin that many operating
;; systems, present and past, show on their screens.  This system
;; creates special directories known as trashcan directories to hold
;; files that can be deleted or undeleted (restored/recovered).  On
;; Unix systems there is one trashcan in the folder HOME and in each
;; of the folders /media/[A-Za-z0-9]+/[A-Za-z0-9]+ for one trashcan
;; directory in each Lubuntu drive.  On Windows systems there are
;; trashcan directories at the following default locations:
;; a:\TRASHCAN, b:\TRASHCAN, c:\TRASHCAN etc.

;; This system changes the behaviour of the "x" key in dired mode from
;; permanently deleting files to a two stage system. If you are not in
;; a trashcan directory, then the selected files are moved into a
;; trashcan directory. If you are already in a trashcan directory, the
;; the selected files are permanently deleted. Files in a trashcan
;; directory can be restored by viewing that directory in dired mode,
;; selecting some files and executing the command M-x
;; trashcan-restore. All of the files in a trashcan directory can also
;; be permanently deleted in one hit by issuing the command M-x
;; trashcan-empty. The name "trashcan" comes from my old Amiga
;; Computer which I still have fond memories of!

;;; Install Instructions:
;; See the following URL for the latest info and a tarball:
;;
;; <http://davin.50webs.com/research/2006/mopa2e.html#trashcan>
;;
;; Then untar the tarball to a folder pointed to by the Emacs variable
;; load-path and add the following line to your ~/.emacs file.
;;
;; (require 'trashcan)

;;; Known Bugs:

;;  (1) Doesn't respect make-auto-save-file-name

;;  (2) Doesn't preserve the marked files (*) in dired buffers when files are
;;      moved in or out of a trashcan directory

;;  (3) Richard Stallman told me that code that is to be distributed with Emacs
;;      should not use the defadvice feature.   I leave the task of removing
;;      all calls to defadvice to someone else.

;;; Version History

;; Version 1.17 Added support for multiple Lubuntu drives

;; Version 1.16 Joe Bloggs - vapniks@yahoo.com improved the windows
;; detection function trashcan--is-a-windows-system by adding a call
;; to system-type

;; Version 1.15 Fixed a bug when you try to delete or restore a file
;; with a % character in it.

;; Version 1.14 Added progress messages to trashcan--rename-to-trash
;; and trashcan-restore.

;; Version 1.13 Changed it so that you can delete files from the
;; trashcan.

;; Version 1.12 Added a error message if you try to delete a file or
;; directory with an exclamation mark in the name.  Fixed a bug in the
;; documentation of trashcan.el thanks to an email from Santiago Mejia

;; Version 1.11 Fixed a bug pointed out by Alex Scherbanov where
;; "^a-zA-Z:/" should be "^[a-zA-Z]:/".

;; Version 1.10 Debugged trashcan--rename-from-trash

;; Version 1.9 Added a new safe execution comqmand
;; trashcan--safe-command and called it from
;; trashcan--rename-from-trash

;; Version 1.8 Debugged trashcan--rename-from-trash by adding and
;; calling new function trashcan--remove-exclamation

;; Version 1.7 Fixed a bug where you do the following actions:
;;
;;  1. Trashcan delete ~/foo/bar
;;  2. Trashcan delete ~/foo
;;  3. Trashcan restore ~/TRASHCAN/foo!bar
;;  4. Doesn't complain about missing directory ~/foo

;; Version 1.6 Fixed a bug running trashcan.el on GNU Emacs on Mac-OS.
;; Thanks go to Martin Buchmann for pointing out this bug to me.

;; Version 1.5 Attempted to fix a bug when running this code in XEmacs

;; Version 1.4 Added a fallback in case dired-delete-file is
;; undefined.

;; Version 1.3 Fixed a compile warning re: assignment to global variable
;; trashcan--refresh-count

;; Version 1.2 Fixed a bug in trashcan--delete-dangerous.  Fixed
;; per-buffer-code argument flag of trashcan--walk-buffers to &rest.

;; Version 1.1 Removed calls to defadvice following a discussion with
;; Richard Stallman.  Changed trashcan--walk-buffers from a function
;; into a macro for faster execution in compiled form.  Changed
;; trashcan--delete-dangerous to use dired-delete-file rather
;; than shell-command rm -rvf
;;
;; Version 1.0 First version

;;; Code:

(defun trashcan--is-a-windows-system ()
  (memq system-type '(windows-nt ms-dos)))

;;; If above function doesn't work try using the one below instead.
;; (defun trashcan--is-a-windows-system ()
;;   (file-exists-p "c:/"))

(defun trashcan--is-a-unix-system ()
  (not (trashcan--is-a-windows-system)))

(defvar trashcan-dirname (if (trashcan--is-a-windows-system) "TRASHCAN" ".Trash")
  "This variable specifies what directory to move files into with the
\"x\" key in dired mode.  Do not add any prefix to the directory such
as \"~/\" or \"/\".

If this is a Windows system, the trashcan directories are located at
the following regexp:

(concat \"^[a-zA-Z]:/\" (regexp-quote trashcan-dirname))

If this is a Unix system, there is one trashcan directory for
each user and are located at the following places:

(concat \"~/\" trashcan-dirname)

Also there are trashcan directories in the following regexp:
\"/media/[0-9A-Za-z]+/[0-9A-Za-z]+\" for one trashcan directory
in each Lubuntu drive.

In Windows, DO NOT give this the same name as the windows RECYCLER
directory as this will confuse the hell out of Windows.
