Bin-It is a Cocoa application that runs in the background (put it into your startup items) and acts like the original Mac OS 9 trash can on your desktop.

Bin-It is a tool that tries to imitate the behavior of the original wastebasket by darkening when you drag files over it. It also shows as "full" when files are in it.

It's hidden from the dock and menu bar, but provides (via a right-click or control-click) a menu offering the 'empty trash' option as well as customization (size and style).

Here are some key features of "Bin-it":

· Desktop Trash: Keep a floating trash can on your desktop. Don't have it hidden in the Dock;
· Trash Level Display: Your Trash icon changes depending on the amount of files in the trash (your trash isn't just empty or full, so why is your icon?);
· Adjustable: Choose from multiple Trash icon styles, change its size, opacity and size thresholds. Take control of your Trash!
