--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
TRASH *oil-trash*
Oil has built-in support for using the system trash. When
`delete_to_trash = true`, any deleted files will be sent to the trash instead
of being permanently deleted. You can browse the trash for a directory using
the `toggle_trash` action (bound to `g\` by default). You can view all files
in the trash with `:Oil --trash /`.
To restore files, simply delete them from the trash and put them in the desired
destination, the same as any other file operation. If you delete files from the
trash they will be permanently deleted (purged).
Linux:
Oil supports the FreeDesktop trash specification.
https://specifications.freedesktop.org/trash-spec/trashspec-1.0.html
All features should work.
Mac:
Oil has limited support for MacOS due to the proprietary nature of the
implementation. The trash bin can only be viewed as a single dir
(instead of being able to see files that were trashed from a directory).
Windows:
Oil does not yet support the Windows trash. PRs are welcome!
