I am used to using my delete key in windows - right now to delete I right click and select move to trash. Is there an easy way to enable the delete key to actually delete or move to trash a file that I ave selected?

Thanks!

(command + delete does nothing)


---edit

never mind -- i was thinking the delete key where windows delete key is located. I have to use the one above the slash. Sorry for the noob post

It's Command + Backspace (Delete), not Forward Delete.
