* These folders are ignored by default:
`B_SYSTEM_ADDONS_DIRECTORY` and `B_TRASH_DIRECTORY`
In other words, applications in Trash are ignored, as well as add-ons.
In other words, applications in Trash are ignored, as well as add-ons.
`B_SYSTEM_BIN_DIRECTORY` used to be ignored, but since especially ported software often ends up in the /bin folder, that is a bad idea. You'll have to remove unwanted commandline apps manually now, e.g. via the context menu.

### Thanks

I have to thank DarkWyrm for some helpful hints and for some of the code I re-used from his RunProgram app and his EscapeCancelFilter.
Equally useful was Robert Polic's EZLauncher of BeNewsletter 3-46 and the help I got on the #haiku IRC channel.
