3 Delete the file or directory
Click on Delete. Your selection will be deleted
from the directory.
Do this
with the copy of file
EditTest
in
directory
TestFiles2.
Note: deleting a directory also deletes all the
files in that directory, so use this option with
caution!
If any files (or directories) have been
locked
against deletion, they will not, in fact, be deleted.
See the RISC OS 3 User and Applications Guide
for information on file access and removing
file
locks.
Pinboard
If you click Menu over a blank area of the
desktop, you will see a menu called Pinboard.
Don't worry too much about this at the moment. It'
s explained in the the RISC OS 3 User and
Applications Guide, and enables you to do things
like
• changing the whole background of the
desktop into a picture
• leaving file or application icons 'stuck' to the
desktop background, so you can see and use
them, even when the directory they came
from is closed
• closing a window down to an icon on the
background.
You might come across one use of Pinboard when
you are dragging files (for example) from one
directory to another. If you let go of the Select
button accidentally while the file you are dragging
is over a blank portion of the desktop, its icon will
stay on the background.
