Folks; sorry to post two not completely related questions in one message, but after these both issues have been bugging me in 7.10 for a while now, I wanted to ask around whether someone can be of some help possibly getting over them:
(a) "Trash": Though the idea of moving files to trash instead of directly deleting them might have some advantages in some situations, I don't at all like to have vast amounts of crap in .Trash-whatever folders on my hard drives and, more annoyingly, on external media (like USB sticks). Is there a way to, in Thunar, make the application forget about .Trash/ and directly delete files whenever I select "delete" in a Thunar window? Can, optionally, this kind of behaviour applied at least to "external", small media? (b) "Firefox window raiser": I do not know whether this is specific to Firefox, but this is where I usually stumble across that: In my daily environment, I make massive use of virtual desktops, having them sorted in a possibly a little pedantic order: mail client on desk 1, browser and related things on 2, NetBeans (my daily working-horse) on 3, anything else beyond that. Both my mailer and NetBeans (for web app development) are configured to use Firefox as default browser, fine. However, as soon as I click on a link in a mail, the URL is not just opened in a new tab in Firefox, but my browser also is brought to the front, focused (fine) and moved to desk 1 (not so fine). Same way, running a webapp from within NetBeans, it is opened in a new tab in Firefox, Firefox is brought to front, focused (fine) and moved to desk 3 (bad). I am not sure whether Firefox is about to blame for that, but so far I consider window placement and focus management to be an issue of the window manager so I wonder whether there's some way how to keep "the environment" from moving windows to other desks automatically? Thanks in advance for any hints, best regards.
