Description
This widget just had an update - a code update just bringing it up to scratch.
If you drop any desktop item (shortcuts, files, documents &c) it will automatically place those into the appropriate folder, for example .doc files will be moved to the my documents folder. If it fails to recognise a specific file type then you can manually add that extension to the list and it will deal with them from that point on. It works on Windows 7, 8 and 10, Vista and Mac OS/X High Sierra, (not tested on XP but it should work).
You can customise the folders to point to any location you wish, you don't have to use the Windows/Mac default folders if you don't want to.
The centre cog wheel will rotate occasionally to let you know the widget is operational, CTRL+ mouse scrollwheel will resize the widget.
This widget is really useful! Both developers of this tool have very untidy desktops but since this widget has been installed our desktops are utterly tidy. It is genuinely useful.
This is the first release of this widget and it has only been tested on three of our systems so far, Windows 7 64bit, Windows 10 32bit and Mac OSX Sierra. We would appreciate feedback if you encounter a bug on your system.
Running the widget in a javascript engine frees javascript from only running within the captivity of a browser, you will now be able to run these widgets on your Windows/Linux/Mac desktop as long as you have an engine installed.
You will, of course, need Yahoo widgets for this widget to run. Get Yahoo widget engine here.
This widget works with Windows, it has been tested on Vista, Windows 7/8 and 10, even Mac Os/X so it should work on these with no problems.
On Windows the installation guide is simple, install yahoo widgets, double click on the desktop hole widget and you are done!
Instructions:
1. Install yahoo widget SDK runtime engine - get it here: g6auc.me.uk/ywidgets_sdk_setup…
2. Download the gauge here from Deviantart
3. Unzip it
4. Double-click on the resulting .widget file and it will install and run

On OS/X it is a tiny bit more involved:
========================================================
Edit the following file:
com.yahoo.widgetengine.plist which is in /Users/xxx/Library/Preferences. Look for these lines: <key>DockOpen</key>
<string>false</string>
Change to false if it is true.
Then you should be able to start Yahoo! Widgets and the menubar item should appear. Widgets can then be started from the menubar or by double-clicking them in the usual way.
========================================================
Do read the help for the widget - it is there in full and explains everything. The only thing you need to do is install then drop a file onto the hole.
Note: The zipfile provided here contains the yahoo/konfabulator widget ready to install.

The only condition for downloading and using is that you leave feedback. Please leave a message and rate the widget/icons as it is the only payment I get for creating this small desktop addition 
I've bundled some icons in with the widget - enjoy them all!
You may use any of my images in your own creations but commercially only with my permission. In all cases I require a credit to the original artist using my name or pseudonym and a link to my own Deviantart page.

This widget was created with the serious coding skills of Harry Whitfield. I supplied the graphics, the original code, the concept and idea and steered the widget toward its final goal. I also tested the widget, added extra functionality and fettled the code for release. Harry built the core functionality to my spec. but just did it far better than I would ever have done!
