Black Hole

Black Hole is a powerful application that allows you to clear sensitive information from your Mac with a single click. Black Hole automates many operations such as quitting applications, removing recent items from application menus, emptying the Trash, and more.

What is new in this release:

• A preference has been added to make Black Hole quit after Quick Cleanup has completed.

• A new Logs Cleaner with Quick Look preview of log files!
• Quick Cleanup : Drag a file or folder on the Black Hole icon and see what happens!
• New, slicker main window graphics and a shiny new icon.
• Growl notifications support.
• All cleaners that delete files now use secure deletion if activated (previously the Recent Items Cleaner didn't).
• The Black Hole Dock icon can now bounce when cleaning is done.
• Better keyboard navigation : Added key equivalents in the main window : press A to open the Applications panel, C to open the Clipboard panel, etc. Also added Ctrl-N and Ctrl-O shortcuts to create new rules and browse for files in the appropriate cleaner panels.
• Added a menu item to start cleanup from the application's Dock menu; you don't have to bring up Black Hole's main window to start a cleanup anymore.
• Black Hole can now quit automatically after cleanup is done.
• New Recent Items rules for Movist, MPlayer OSX Extended.
• New Files and Folders rules for Safari Form Values and Safari Cookies.
• You cannot submit a default rule anymore. A lot of you tried the button with a default rule for fun it seems! ;)
• Fixed a bug where rm and srm (file deletion) would keep running if Black Hole was quit while cleaning.
