My PCManFM-Qt custom actions

Move to trash

I have been a dolphin file manager user for a long time now, but with my switch to standalone WM/Compositor, I also made the switch to light weight PCManFM-Qt FM, because I kinda like my cute (Qt) apps.

The issue now is that the trash doesn't work on my other (NTFS) partitions, And I tried many other FMs (nemo, caja, thunar ...) and none of them worked except dolphin and nautilus because I didn't tried it.

Comes custom actions to the rescue with the help of trashy a Rust-based cli tool with FreeDesktop Trash specification support.

Scan with ClamAV

I download a lot of files (Videos, music, executables...), and share them with my family, so sometimes I get a little worried if I downloaded some infected files, and with the ClamTk project put to 'rest' by the developer, I need a way to quickly scan some files without the need to open a terminal and the run the scan command. Hince this custom action that makes use of ClamAV antivirus to run some tests.

Aside from the ClamAV dependency, this action needs kdialog or notify-send to be installed to show messages.
