Adding Icon to trashcan

[protoaddict]

I just picked up my aspire one today and im very pleased with it thusfar. Im not a lunix user but i do know a little about it. I have read the tutorials on how to create .desktop files to launch applications and how to edit the decktop XML file to add them to the desktop and completley understand them, however I have hit a snag.

I would like to make a desktop icon that links to the trash folder, but every way I try to type it in does not work. heres the parts of my code I have so far:

[Desktop Entry]
Encoding=UTF-8
Name=Trash
Name[zh_CN]=Trash
Name[zh_HK]=Trash
Name[zh_TW]=Trash
Name[de]=Trash
Name[it]=Trash
Name[fr]=Trash
Name[es]=Trash
Name[pt]=Trash
Name[nl]=Trash
Name[ja]=Trash
Name[ru]=Trash
Comment=Trash
Comment[zh_TW]=Trash
Comment[zh_CN]=Trash
Comment[de]=Trash
Comment[it]=Trash
Comment[fr]=Trash
Comment[es]=Trash
Comment[pt]=Trash
Comment[nl]=Trash
Comment[ja]=Trash
Comment[ru]=Trash
Exec=trash:///
Icon=trash.png
Terminal=0

However when i use this .desktop file it dosent work. I imagine the "Exec=trash:///" is the problem, but i dont know what it should read to make it work. Does anyone know what it should be?

"trash:///" is only a link to folder, isn't an executable, i think you put a command like "thunar -pathTOtrash" :roll:
