I'd like to see a Delete item under File, I'm never inside $scriptdir to delete it, it's not really bothersome but I'm forever testing scripts (posters on here) and then when I'm finished I delete them. It would save time if I could just click delete. Instead of having to type /remove or going into the folder to manually delete it.

That would be helpful. As you said, it's not that much work to manually do it, but it would be nice to have Delete under Unload.

Or even, when clicking on unload ask if the file should be removed or something.

I'd much prefer a separate Delete option, as I find that I'm often unloading scripts, and wanting to keep them for future reference, even if I'm not going to use them.

* Mentality raises his hand in support

I'm always forgetting to delete files (I test quite a few scripts for mirc.net) and after a build-up of a few months I'm now faced with an mIRC directory filled with dozens of script files I never use.... I'm going to have to face it one day of course smirk It would have been easier though if I could have File > Deleted.

Regards,

another option COULD be that when you UNLOAD the file, if mirc asks you if you want to delete it also (with an option in mirc to not ask - by default).

Well I'm not sure I'd want to go to those lengths just to delete a file (if the default is off), I'd have deleted it by then.

I think he means that the default is that mIRC won't ask you about deleting it and then will NOT delete it. The only way it would delete is if you turn on the check to see if you want to delete it.
