As of iTunes 7.6, using delete to remove a track from library
playlist 1 will also move the
tracks file to the Trash.
Is there perhaps an optional clause to the delete command that will
prevent it from doing that?
There are no optional parameters for delete. From iTunes' aete:
delete v : Delete an element from an object
delete specifier : the element to delete
There is no suggestion that a file can/shall/will be moved to the
Trash, only that an element (a track or playlist) will be deleted from
an object (a playlist or source).
I've always thought that "remove" would be a better command name in
this situation than "delete". It is too similar to the Finder's delete
command, which *does* move a file/alias to the Trash.
By the way, I have tested this with iTunes v7.5 and the delete command
works as expected. So it appears to be an issue with iTunes v7.6.
