5	Allow AEI to remove files from previous versions of tool/patch packages	Iritscen	Christian	"Sample use case: I make a package of type Patch called ""Mac app"" where the contents get distributed to the AE/ folder.  One of those files is a read-me.  Later I want to change the name of the read-me.  If I change it in the package, when the AEI downloads the update, it will put a second read-me in AE/ with the new name, leaving the old one in place.  A RemoveFiles option in a tool's Mod_Info.cfg could allow me to replace the old file with the new.

Historical note: The AEI 1.1, as part of its added update feature, supported a Delete_List property in the central Install_Info.cfg file that was found in Globalize/.  The AEI would delete files by the names listed there.  It was strictly controlled in terms of not being able to act outside the Edition/ folder or on names with wildcards, etc. to prevent costly mistakes (see source code for documentation in comments)."	enhancement	closed	minor	AEI2	fixed
