RE: [Digital BW] Re: QTR--printing from Qimage

OK. I guess a better solution would be to use my CleanTemp
(http://www.sbillard.org/Shareware/index.htm) program to clear out the files
from the processed folder when they have aged. 

CleanTemp lets you select folders to process. It also lets you select how old a
file must be before it is deleted. It is also free. So, I will recommend its use
rather than add this kind of capability to QTRgui.

Move to quarantaine

This moves the raw source file on disk only. The archive index is not changed automatically, so you still need to run a manual refresh afterward.
