Move file to trash instead of deleting #39

Closed BrewingWeasel closed 1 year ago

As Brodie Robertson mentioned in his video, I think completely deleting files is not intuitive and makes deleting files unnecessarily stressful. I think a good solution for this would be to instead move the files to ~/.local/share/Trash/ (and the equivalent on other platforms). This way the files would be automatically removed after a certain amount of time on Windows and Mac, (and on linux if the user or another trash program configured it to do so) but if the user accidentally deleted the file they could easily recover it. This would also help when undoing is added.
