Deltrack is a simple script that moves the currently playing track to trash.
Increase the quality of your music collection by assigning a global shortcut to this script.
Installation
============
Copy `deltrack.py` to $HOME/bin
mkdir -p $HOME/bin
cp deltrack.py $HOME/bin
and install the input actions:
- go to System Settings --> Input Actions
- in the lower left: Edit --> Import --> select "input_actions.khotkeys"
- (optional) Edit the shortcut to your choice. Default: "Win+Alt+d" (Win == Meta).
- (optional) Edit the command if you copied `deltrack.py` somewhere else.
Have fun!
Alternative Installation with Launcher
======================================
- right-click the "Application Laucher" (blue K, in the lower left corner)
- select "Menu Editor"
- click "New Item" and give it a name (like "delete current track")
- Command: "python $HOME/bin/deltrack.py" (without quotes)
- untick "Enable launch feedback"
- open the "Advanced" tab (ALT+A)
- click the "Current shortcut key" button and assign the shortcut

Thank you for this nice script! I would be lost without it since i cant use delete current playing track.
You don't even have to create a launcher. There are Input Actions in Settings on KDE 4.4. Great script!
I was looking for delete menu option in amarok, but your plugin is even better. I set it to kde global hot keys. Once more thx for it.
It was hard finding this script. I found it when I started researching how to develop something like this.
