Securely empty trash via AppleScript after 'n' days
You can simplify the script and eliminate the need to have a newly trashed file as the trigger. Strip the script down so that it securely empties older files and does nothing else. Then, go to automator, make a new action, insert the AppleScript, and save it as an iCal plugin. Go to iCal and set it up as a daily recurring event at 3 am, for example. (You can do this without Automator, but I prefer plugin links to application links.) Your x-day old trash will be securely emptied daily (or whatever interval you choose in iCal.)

I retract the above comment and add a warning.
Securely empty trash via AppleScript after 'n' days
So you advocate engineering a whole new "Trash" schema, just because you consider throwing a file in the trash doesn't constitute "modifying" it? |
