Delete processed files

Hi,
"Forget missing files" is actually a very useful feature, but I would like to see another option available.
How about adding "Delete processed files"?
This way, you can copy a file in the watchfolder, wait it to be processed, delete it from the watchfolder and trigger the "forget missing files" to also delete the cache.
It would be awesome to have this automation.

Hi FranceBB,

FFAStrans used to have this option several versions ago but was removed for safety reasons; One user lost a lot of files due to a logic flaw so it was decided that FFAStrans should NOT have any inbuilt options to remove/delete original files. However, because it has the inbuilt generic "Command executor"-node it's very easy to add this functionality yourself. Just take a look at the help section of that node.
