About QuickTrash...
QuickTrash enables you to move a file, a set of files, a folder or a set
of folders to Trash Folder with a point-and-click while your other hand
is holding down a specific key combination to enable the feature. It is
great when you have lots of files to remove and they are scattered all
over or you have many windows opened so that you can't dig out the Trash
to dump the files.

How to install...
QuickTrash is an INIT program that goes into Extension Folder of your
Macintosh. After download, decode '.hqx' file, unstuff '.sit' file, then
you will have a folder containing the program and other information.
Move QuickTrash to your System Folder and click okay to move it into the
Extension Folder. Restart your computer.

How to operate...
When you are on Finder, press down Control Key with Option Key. The
arrow cursor should be changed to something else. Click with a mouse on
the file you want to delete. If the cursor is not changed with the key
combination or the file doesn't move to Trash when it clicked, maybe
your machine is not configured to work with this version. Check the
requirement again...
To remove a set of files or folders, while QuickTrash is
activated(combo-key), select files as you would do normally when you are
in the finder(rubber band method).

Requirements...
This version is NO FAT which is only designed to work for PowerPC
Macintosh, and only tested for MacOS 8.1 and MacOS 8.5.
- PowerPC Macintosh
- MacOS 8.0 or higher

Shareware...
QuickTrash is a shareware. Send $10 USD check if you decided to keep
the program.
