How to empty trash from Fluxbox menu?

[ludwig1]

Hi,
I was wondering how one might add a submenu to the menu that allows you to empty the trash?

make it point to a script that deletes the contrents of the trash directory or just put the entire command to delete the trash in.

i.e. if ~/.trash is the trash directory :

rm ~/.trash/*

thanks Hayl :).

Just one question: what is a script and how would I make one for this purpose?

Hi Hayl:
I just wrote
[exec](Empty Trash) {rm -rf /home/ludwig/.Trash/*} into the menu and it worked fine.
Thanks :)

ok,
Another thing I can't figure out is how to mount and unmount drives,such as a floppy.
I've tried adding

[exec](Mount Floppy) {mount /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy}
[exec](Mount CDRW) {mount /dev/cdrom1 /mnt/cdrom1}
[exec](Mount DVD) {mount /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom}

to the menu,but I can't get the drives to mount.However, if I put mount /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy in hte command line,it mounts fine.
Any ideas?
