delete on removal from playlist

[Vchat20]

simple feature request. add an option where upon deletion from the playlist, winamp asks you if you would like to physically delete the file or not. this would be a big help for me in my 10GB+ library instead of hunting through the virtual jungle of messed of organization.

check out "playlist file remover" http://www.nunzioweb.com/daz/

rellik is right...hmm after all this time of having DrO's plugins installed, i always thought that option was his, apparently its winamps.

it's sorta there already, click on the -Rem button and select Remove... > Physically remove selected Files

And if you are using a classic skin it's under Sub > Misc. :)

more like REM > REM MISC > Physically Remove Selected files, or you can right click on the REM button and get the modern skin remove menu

The classic skin I'm using had the button labelled SUB. :o

call me lazy but it would be nice to have it ask to physicaly remove every time i hit the DEL key rather than go through the menu like that. and having a 10GB+ library would probabably take a while to clear out of old stuff using this method.

no matter, atleast ive got a temporary solution to my problem.

Note that you can select multiple files with ctrl and/or shift pressed down. So you can delete more files at the time.

The 'physically remove files feature' also works in the Media Library.

Also note that deleting through this option will delete the files permanently: they are not moved to the Recycle Bin.

/me makes a note that he needs to finish playlist file remover so it's available for public usage (with the move to recycle bin option, etc working)
