Hello Everybody.
Like many here, I do not like the Trash can and would be happyer if I could
just push 'del' to
have my files removed from my system.
Since Thunar is really modular and well designed, I was able to do write a
patch for it in only a
few hours.
my patch
a) adds a new option in the advanced tab called "Move items to trash on
delete", which is on by
default
b) when the user tries to delete a file, if the box is checked, it deletes the
file automatically,
still showing the confirmation dialog, but without sending it to the Trash
I hope you enjoy it!
ps: it was tested on Thunar-0.5.1svn-r24061
