Description
If you select say 30 files for deletion then the filename shown in the tray icon message and the scheduler screen starts to show all 30 filenames.
Perhaps a more generic name should be use for display purposes.
Or
Perhaps each file should be queued up as an individual tasks but onle a single notification is done (tray icon message) that many tasks have been created.

I think that the best solution will be to pick the first item, the "median" item and the last item as the name. What do you think?

I don't know. I prefer a more generic name but you ideal would work.

Could you suggest a generic name?

How about the following:
1st line contains 1st file selected
2nd line contains something like "+30 additional files"

- Status changed from new to accepted
- Milestone changed from Eraser 6.0.7 to Eraser 6.1/6.2
That's even better, thanks! I'll implement it in Trunk (so it'll be a 6.2 feature, since 6.0 is now in the "bugfix" stage)
Alternatively, you could implement a patch and post it here. Thanks!
