New in version 1.8.9.1:
• Resolves issues with license codes.

The previous Compost 1.8.9 release featureed the following improvements and changes: - Added to the background app the ability to completely ignore a mounted disk. This is a slight efficiency improvement over just overriding and disabling all the limits, and works around an observed issue relating to a troublesome interaction between Compost, volume duplication software and the OS.

- Added to the preference pane a checkbox to control the "ignore" flag (above) for a volume.

- In TrashInfo, fixed a bug that would result in a crash when TrashInfo next terminated if the user had disabled the display of the icon menu.

- Corrected some issues with the German localization.

- Simplified the UI for secure deletion.

- Added per-volume override of secure-delete setting. (Preference Pane and background app)

- Items placed in the trash via DeskTrash can be restored via a new "Put Away" command in the context menu.

- Added to TrashInfo the ability for the user to override the menu bar icons by placing files named title_empty.png and title_full.png in a folder named com.splook.TrashInfo inside ~/Library/Application Support or /Library/Application Support.

- Fixed context menu for Leopard.

Compost solves Trash problems by letting users set a time limit on the trash, cap its size, and maintain a minimum amount of space. Whether you're an individual Mac user, or a network administrator looking to help your users better manage their free space, Compost can help you.

Compost costs $12.50, requires Mac OS X 10.3 or later, and is a Universal Binary application. Compost is available in English, French, Italian, Spanish and German.
